Defending champion Max Verstappen passes Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez late in the race to win the Miami Grand Prix after starting ninth on the grid.
Max Verstappen used an easy Sunday drive to keep Red Bull undefeated on the season, as the reigning two-time Formula One champion drove from ninth to the victory at the Miami Grand Prix.
Red Bull boss Christian Horner praised Verstappen’s poise over the 57-lap race that gave him his second consecutive victory in Miami. But the Dutchman had no problem driving through the field. He went from ninth to sixth in the first four laps, using a pass of two cars in one corner to gain ground. He was fifth by the ninth lap, fourth on Lap 12 and finally behind Perez in second on Lap 15.
The victory also came on the anniversary of the 2016 announcement that Verstappen was being promoted from the junior team to Red Bull ahead of the fifth round of that season.“I tried, I gave it all,” Perez said as the crowd chanted his nickname, “Checo! Checo! Checo!”Sierra Canyon High senior Bronny James commits to USC as he pursues a professional career playing alongside father LeBron James of the Lakers.
