Kimi Antonelli converted his third successive pole position into a third successive Grand Prix win at the Miami International Autodrome. But who else joined him in the top half of the Power Rankings charts? Check out the latest scores and overall leaderboard below…<\/p>\n
How it works<\/p>\n
\u2022 Our five-judge panel assess each driver after every Grand Prix and score them out of 10 according to their performance across the weekend \u2013 taking machinery out of the equation
\n\u2022 Our experts\u2019 scores are then averaged out to produce a race score \u2013 with those scores then tallied up across the season on our overall Power Rankings Leaderboard (at the bottom of the page)<\/p>\n
After taking his first (Sprint) pole position at last year\u2019s Miami Grand Prix, Antonelli<\/a> had an even more successful second visit to Florida. He had to settle for P6 in the Sprint after a tricky start and a time penalty for exceeding track limits, but nobody could stop him across the main Qualifying and Grand Prix sessions \u2013 the young Italian brilliantly doing the pole and victory double and extending his championship lead.<\/p>\n Lando Norris<\/a> started his Miami weekend with pole and the win in the Sprint, as McLaren<\/a> stepped forward with a host of updates to their car. Qualifying was not quite so strong, leaving Norris fourth on the grid, but the Briton did well to work his way up to second and give Antonelli something to think about before the chequered flag dropped.<\/p>\n Like McLaren, Red Bull<\/a> appeared to make solid progress at the Miami International Autodrome, with Max Verstappen<\/a> looking much more comfortable \u2013 and competitive \u2013 aboard the upgraded RB22. He mixed it at the front all weekend and, had it not been for a spin on the opening lap of the Grand Prix, might have been a contender for victory.<\/p>\n Cadillac<\/a> deployed the first major upgrades of their debut F1 season in Miami, and the early signs were promising \u2013 particularly in Sergio Perez<\/a>\u2019s hands. After finishing ahead of Alex Albon<\/a>\u2019s Williams<\/a> and Lance Stroll<\/a>\u2019s Aston Martin<\/a> in the Sprint, the Mexican split the Aston Martins again in the Grand Prix, meaning F1\u2019s newest squad were no longer cut adrift at the back.<\/p>\n Williams headed to Florida eager to put a challenging first three rounds of the season behind them \u2013 last year\u2019s P5 finishers in the Teams\u2019 Championship taking just two points from Australia\/China\/Japan. However, Carlos Sainz<\/a> doubled that total with an opportunistic drive to P9 in Miami, building on a solid set of updates and steering clear of the drama around him.<\/p>\n Oscar Piastri<\/a> signed off a run of three successive victories at the Miami Grand Prix in 2025, but he had to settle for backing up team mate Norris this time around \u2013 the Australian taking second in the Sprint and third in the Grand Prix, with almost 25 seconds between the two McLarens drivers at the end of Sunday\u2019s race.<\/p>\n Charles Leclerc<\/a> entered the last lap in Miami challenging for a podium spot, having confidently led Ferrari<\/a>\u2019s challenge all weekend, only to spin out and then be penalised for leaving the track and gaining an advantage on multiple occasions. \u201cThe mistake is all on me,\u201d he rued afterwards. \u201cIt cost us P3 or P4. More likely it would have been a P4, but P3 was still right there.\u201d<\/p>\n Fernando Alonso<\/a> has used all of his experience and spirit amid Aston Martin-Honda\u2019s troubled start to the 2026 season. At the Miami International Autodrome, the two-time World Champion put in a typically determined display \u2013 battling his way to P15 finishes in the Sprint and Grand Prix \u2013 to give the new alliance hope that there is some light at the end of the tunnel, and better times are ahead.<\/p>\n Haas<\/a> kicked off the 2026 season with successive points finishes in Australia, China and Japan, but they fell further into the midfield in Miami. Whether it was track specific, or due to the effect of various teams\u2019 updates, neither Ollie Bearman<\/a> nor Esteban Ocon<\/a> could add to the squad\u2019s tally \u2013 though the former came close in P11 and continued to head the intra-team fight.<\/p>\n Missing out<\/p>\n Placing just outside the top 10 positions in our Miami Power Rankings list are Gasly and Albon \u2013 the former challenging for points in the Grand Prix before being taken out by Racing Bulls<\/a>\u2019 Liam Lawson<\/a>, and the latter bagging the final point on offer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kimi Antonelli converted his third successive pole position into a third successive Grand Prix win at the Miami…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":939493,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[13,12,14],"class_list":{"0":"post-939492","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-stories"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116522460797868023","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/939492","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=939492"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/939492\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/939493"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=939492"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=939492"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=939492"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
