Formula 1 racing has resumed after a significant five-week break, with the Miami Grand Prix marking the sport's return to the track. The extended schedule delay was a consequence of the ongoing conflict in Iran, which led to the cancellation of the Bahrain and Saudi Arabian Grand Prix events.

These adjustments are designed to enhance on-track action, prioritizing pure racing over energy recovery strategies. The technical teams have also gained valuable insights into the car modifications introduced for the 2026 season.
The Miami Grand Prix race week commenced on Friday, May 1, with practice sessions and Sprint Qualifying. Saturday, May 3, featured the Sprint race and final Qualifying, culminating in the Grand Prix of Miami on Sunday, May 4. All times are listed in Eastern Time.
In the United States, broadcasting rights for Formula 1 are held by Apple TV, offering multiple viewing options including F1 TV feeds, Sky Sports, and individual driver cameras. The sport's global reach extends to over 70 countries, with extensive network coverage detailed on the Formula 1 Broadcast Information page.
