With the addition of Miami to the 2022 calendar, the calendar for next season is starting to take shape. The new regulations will also come into effect from next season and the new Grand Prix in Miami is yet another reason to look forward to the upcoming season. Both Red Bull Racing drivers are excited by the announcment dropped just hours before the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix. 

"It's always interesting to go to a new location where we've never been before and Miami is a great city. I'm sure if they manage to build a good circuit, we can have a lot of fun there and hopefully that will bring enthusiasm as well," Max Verstappen looked ahead in reaction from Red Bull. The Dutchman has always been a fan of the American Grand Prix and now one more race will follow.

Great for the fans

"If it gets exciting, that's just great for the fans too. I always enjoy being in America. It gives you the feeling that anything is possible, so I'm looking forward to it."

Teammate Sergio Perez also has fond memories of America and can't wait until he drives out of the pit lane in Miami.

"Racing in the US is always fun and I do like a street circuit, it always brings a challenge. I think Miami is a great venue for Formula 1. It is a nice city and there is a lot of energy in that city. The Latino community is pretty big there so I'm looking forward to going there. I think Miami and F1 is the perfect combination," the Mexican added.
