F1 Schedule: Miami Grand Prix times and running order with Hamildashian on the menu

F1 finally returns to action at the Miami Grand Prix after an unprecedented five-week hiatus, with the 2026 calendar reshuffled following the cancellations of the Bahrain and Saudi Arabian Grands Prix due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

The enforced break has provided teams a rare early-season reset after the first three races of 2026 and factories have been flat-out producing upgrade packages, while drivers have taken the chance to recharge before a brutal run into the summer.

All eyes now turn to the Miami International Autodrome for another Sprint weekend, where Mercedes’ dominance will again be tested by chasing rivals Ferrari and McLaren.

Off track, celebrity interest is set to spike again, with Kim Kardashian widely expected to make her first garage/paddock appearance of the season as her relationship with seven-time Lewis Hamilton appears to go from strength to strength.
