Andrea Kimi Antonelli has beaten his teammate George Russell in a qualifying session for the second time in a row. The young Italian star qualified P3 behind Max Verstappen and Lando Norris and ahead of Oscar Piastri.

Speaking on the grid after the qualifying session the young Italian outlined his feelings on what's been a rather complicated Saturday in Miami.

"This weekend is going well so far. It was a bit disappointing this morning but it was good to bounce back this way."

'Tight gaps at the top,' hopes for a good race tomorrow

"I struggled a little bit during the qualy, I didn’t have such a clean run like I had yesterday. But that last lap was quite good. I was a bit too greedy in Turn 1, but the rest of the lap was quite good, so I’m happy with it."

"The gaps are super tight, and definitely, if you can gain just a few hundredths, you can make up so many places. It’s really about putting everything together and so far this weekend, I’m doing that. Hopefully tomorrow we can have a good race."
