McLaren’s Lando Norris beat Red Bull’s Max Verstappen with help from the safety car to take his first ever Formula 1 victory at the Miami Grand Prix.

Norris’ victory in Miami is McLaren’s first since the 2021 Italian Grand Prix 

In addition to a bit of luck and timing, Norris’ victory was based on genuine pace as he was the quickest car on track once he was released from behind the struggling Red Bull of Sergio Perez when the Mexican made an early pit stop for tyres on lap 17.
