Story summary
  • The FIA announced the first free-practice session at the Miami Grand Prix will be 90 minutes.
  • It will run from 12:00 to 13:30 local time, moving all earlier track activities 30 minutes forward.
  • The adjustment responds to a five-week gap after the Saudi Arabia and Bahrain Grands Prix were cancelled.
  • The FIA said the gap, regulatory changes and the sprint format’s limited practice led to the longer FP1.
