This Sunday, Miami will officially join Austin as U.S. sites on the Formula 1 World Championship schedule, with Las Vegas slated to join in 2023. Its the 11th venue in the United States to ever host a Formula 1 race.
Red Bull's Max Verstappen at +105 ($10 wins $10.50) and Ferrari's Charles Leclerc at +135 ($10 wins $13.50) are the favorites to win the inaugural Miami Grand Prix — and the only two drivers given much of a chance by sportsbooks early this week.
The other choices under 40-1 are their teammates — Red Bull's Sergio Perez at +1100 ($10 wins $110) and Ferrari's Carlos Sainz Jr. at +1300 ($10 wins $130).
Miami has been positioning itself for a spot on the Formula 1 schedule for a while now. After missing out in 2021, Miami will get its shot early in the 2022 season.
Leclerc leads the Formula 1 Drivers Championship through four races, picking up wins in Bahrain and Australia. Verstappen has won the other two races at Imola Circuit and in Saudi Arabia. He didn't finish in Bahrain and Australia, which is why he's not closer to Leclerc in the standings.
Ferrari also leads the Constructors Championship with 124 points, picking up five of eight possible podiums so far. Red Bull is next with 113 points, and Mercedes as a distant third at 77 points.
There are still many unknowns about this track, given that it has never been raced on. So, the betting markets will shift significantly throughout the weekend as we gain further insight into car performance — and, of course, the starting grid.
What Should Bettors Know About the Miami Grand Prix?
The Miami International Autodrome is a temporary track built near Hard Rock Stadium (home of the Miami Dolphins). Teams will have limited data to work with from the jump given that the track is brand new.
Per Formula 1's own site, the track is expected to be fast. There are two long straightaways that should offer good passing opportunities.
"… This is a street circuit that should be conducive to good racing, as well as being a thrilling prospect over a flat-out qualifying lap."
Turn 17 should be the best opportunity for passing, and turns 13-16 are expected to keep cars together, so we should see some great racing down the stretch.
