F1 Results Today: Norris STUNS Verstappen at Miami Grand Prix for historic victory

An electric Miami Grand Prix saw Max Verstappen beaten on track for the first time in 2024, with Lando Norris consigning the reigning world champion to the second spot on the podium with a truly stunning drive.

The British driver took advantage of a cheap pitstop during a safety car to position himself just ahead of Verstappen, and simply drove away from the championship leader to the flag.

The safety car came out at the midway point of the race, with Norris' excellent preservation of his medium tyres allowing him to take advantage with a cheap stop, unlike his rivals.

Indeed, Verstappen was more in danger of being caught by third-placed Charles Leclerc than he was of challenging the McLaren for the lead in the second half of the race.
