The Miami Grand Prix will start three hours earlier than planned due to heavy rainstorms forecast for later in the day on Sunday. The race will now commence at 1:00 PM local time instead of the originally scheduled 4:00 PM.
This decision followed discussions between the FIA, F1, and the Miami promoter. Heavy rain and thunderstorms are expected Sunday afternoon, prompting the schedule change.
The Miami GP has been held annually since 2022 and is set to run every year until at least 2041. This year’s event features new hospitality options, including the MSC Yacht Club.
Key details of the MSC Yacht Club:
- The ticket option for access for 20 people is priced at $95,000.
- The structure rises over five levels and includes several swimming pools.
- At its inaugural race in 2022, general admission passes were priced at $500.
Katharina Nowak expressed excitement about developing the marina into something unprecedented for fans. Officials have not confirmed how this schedule adjustment will affect attendance or logistics.
The F1 paddock is preparing for a busy day as teams adjust their plans around the new race schedule. Fans are advised to stay updated on weather developments leading up to the race.
