“Tequila flowed uninhibited”: This is what the press wrote about the Miami race

World champion Max Verstappen won the Grand Prix. After a tough duel, he was able to leave his opponent Charles Leclerc behind and record his third win of the season. The international press writes the following about this. Great Britain The Sun : “Building a fresh race track around the Miami Dolphins' Hard Rock Stadium and an enviable guest list (...) doesn't necessarily make for a good race. Sadly, it has always been difficult for Formula 1 to live up to so much hype and Sunday's Grand Prix failed to generate the same enthusiasm as the other new circuit, the Saudi Grand Prix a few weeks ago."

The Guardian : “The tequila flowed freely in Miami this weekend as Formula 1 went all out to throw the party it wanted to celebrate its inaugural race here. When the checkered flag waved, it was clear to Max Verstappen that he and his Red Bull team also deserved a drink after pushing Ferrari's Charles Leclerc into second place. Italy Greenhouse Courier: “At the F1 Superbowl, victory goes to Max Verstappen. Ferrari goes from a one-two in qualifying to a double podium.”

Spain Brand: “In Miami he (Max Verstappen) achieved a solid victory over Charles Leclerc by taking advantage of the only chance he had - a breakdown in the Ferrari's tyres.”

The country: “Formula 1 experienced a weekend full of former athletes, musicians and actresses. (...) The first race won, with a lot of luck for Red Bull Max Verstappen over Charles Leclerc, who is starting to fade.” France Le Figaro: “Max Verstappen is in charge in Miami. The reigning world champion won the first Grand Prix in Florida and relegated the two Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz. The Dutchman is sending a message and celebrating his third victory in five races.”

Switzerland Look: “The rain stays away, and so does the spectacle for the most part.” “Tages-Anzeiger”: “The world champion is tugging on Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc’s nerves in Miami after his third win of the season.” Austria Krone newspaper: “The Miami International Autodrome made its debut on the racing calendar in 2022. The hype surrounding the race, which was tailored entirely to American enthusiasm, was correspondingly high.”
