The roar of engines is back. After a month-long break, Formula 1 returns to U.S. soil for the 2026 Miami Grand Prix, running from Friday, May 1, through Sunday, May 3. This marks the first American race of the season, and the stakes couldn't be higher.
All eyes are on Mercedes' young stars Andrea Kimi Antonelli and George Russell, who currently top the leaderboard. But don't count out McLaren's Lando Norris or Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton—both are hungry for a victory to climb the ranks. Off the track, the weekend is a spectacle in itself. Recording artists Zedd, Nelly, Marshmello, DJ Diesel, Kane Brown, and Loud Luxury will perform trackside. And for a grand kickoff, Guns N' Roses will headline the official Crypto.com Miami Grand Prix concert on Thursday, April 30, at Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, Florida.
The action at Miami International Autodrome in Miami Gardens begins with Practice 1 on Friday at noon ET / 9 a.m. PT. The weekend culminates on Sunday, May 3, with the main race at 4 p.m. ET / 1 p.m. PT.
For fans looking to catch every second of the high-speed drama, Apple TV is the top choice. For just $12.99 per month (or $99 per year), you get access to the entire 2026 season with no extra fees. New subscribers can even enjoy a seven-day free trial—more than enough time to watch the Miami Grand Prix for free. Whether you're gearing up in your favorite team's colors or just love the thrill of the race, this is one weekend you won't want to miss.
