Route 305 is starting to show signs of wear.
This upcoming long weekend, from May 1st to May 3rd, the F1 Miami Grand Prix will take center stage, promising three action-packed days of elite racing in the vibrant atmosphere of Miami.
If you’re eager to catch the live action featuring Ferrari, Mercedes, and McLaren, there are still tickets available for the inaugural F1 race in the U.S. since 2026.
As of now, the lowest cost for a three-day pass at the 3.63-mile Miami International Autodrome is $1,331, fees included, through StubHub.
Two-day passes begin at $1,916, inclusive of fees.
Surprisingly, you could save nearly $600 by opting for a three-day pass instead of just two.
In light of this thrilling showdown, F1 recently canceled the Bahrain and Saudi Arabian GPs due to ongoing tensions between the U.S. and Iran.
This has resulted in only three races being held so far, and renowned champion Max Verstappen hasn’t made it to the podium yet.
New regulations have led to cars being a mix of electric and fuel-powered, which has created some quirks for the drivers, like being a bit, well, slower—though “slow” is relative when discussing racing speeds.
According to dedicated fan Angela Tricarico, both Mercedes and Ferrari have adapted impressively to the changes, with Mercedes basically creating what she describes as “a rocket ship.” In the first three races of the season, Mercedes’ George Russell and Kimi Antonelli have claimed victories.
Meanwhile, McLaren’s Oscar Piastri, who won the 2015 F1 Miami Grand Prix, along with Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton, have remained enthusiastic throughout the year.
With it being Cadillac’s first home race and a concert by 50 Cent on Sunday night, plus a host of celebrities expected to be around, it’s shaping up to be an exhilarating F1 weekend.
