Really pleased for Lando. The McLaren looked very competitive all weekend and deserved to join Red Bull and Ferrari as race winners this season. Norris drove a blinder and won on merit. Looks a bit more hopeful for the European leg of the championship now.

Looks a bit more hopeful for the European leg of the championship now. Great summing up Del and at last Lando's got his long overdue win. Nice One! I think what Miami showed is if Red Bull drop the ball slightly or aren't quite on it McLaren and Ferrari can pounce and take a few results from them and as you say the European races could give some hope for it not all being a RB cakewalk this year. Also special mention to Zak Brown and Andrea Stella at McLaren they've done a great job over the last few years with the team and even when a few seasons haven't gone to plan or started badly like last season they've not hit the panic button and instead found ways to work things out and turn out decent results... and a couple of wins with Ricciardo and now Norris. Bring on Imola.

What a brilliant result with Lando Norris winning. I think we all needed that as much as he did. Those upgrades made to his car must have made a huge difference and Piastri will receive the same amount of upgrades in Imola.
The Miami race seems to be one that is full of instagram people, celebrities, loud music and a party vibe. Maybe not as many real F1 fans as at other tracks. Reading reviews of the Miami race online everyone mentions the heat, the need to have a grandstand seat in the shade, the 20% extra charged by restaurants in the area, the long distance needed to walk from the car parking (30 mins), the dreadful traffic getting out of there... Not a lot of talk about the actual race ! I think that might sum up my thoughts that this isn't a race attended by the usual diehard F1 fans.
