I am a passionate and knowledgeable Formula 1 fan who has watched the sport since age five, watching every single race. Having karted competitively throughout my teens, I understand what it takes to be a racing driver, and every aspect of motorsports fascinates me. I am now studying sports journalism at the University of Gloucestershire with the hopes of one day landing a dream role in motorsport. As well as English, I speak Spanish fluently after living there for some time when I was younger.
The press conference lineups for the Miami Grand Prix media sessions have been announced. You can find out here which drivers and team principals will be speaking to the press on Thursday and Friday respectively
Hamilton and Norris will both be present
While Max Verstappen was present at the press conference in Saudi Arabia, he won't be attending in Miami. Instead, Yuki Tsunoda will be part of the press conference lineup. The session, scheduled to begin at 18:30 UK time, will also feature Alpine's Pierre Gasly and 2024 Miami winner, Lando Norris.
The Brit currently sits second in the driver's standings after five rounds. Throughout the early stages of the 2025 season, his McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri has been the man to beat. The Australian has won three of the five races this season and won last time out in Saudi Arabia. The 24-year-old brings the momentum to the Sunshine State of Florida as he hunts down his third consecutive win.
In the other session, starting slightly later than the first, Lewis Hamilton, Nico Hülkenberg, and George Russell will be present. They’ll take questions from journalists at 19:00 UK time.

But that’s not all — on Friday, it’s time for the team principals’ press conference. Red Bull Racing’s Christian Horner will be in attendance, along with Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff and Alpine’s Oliver Oakes, who will all take questions from the assembled media.
It's also important to remember that this weekend's Miami Grand Prix will take place in a sprint format.
