Mercedes’ Podium Streak Ends in Miami as McLaren Delivers a 1-2 Punch

Published by Sam Flores

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Mercedes was knocked off the podium for the first time this season when Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri finished 1-2 for McLaren in Formula 1’s sprint race Saturday at the Miami Grand Prix. Charles Leclerc was third for Ferrari in the 19-lap preview of Sunday’s race at the Miami International Autodrome around the Hard Rock Stadium. “It was a good race, nice to be back on the top stair even if it was a sprint,” said Norris, who won from the pole. “It was hot out there, it was sweaty. I was trying to find that balance of pushing but also staying relaxed and not making mistakes.” McLaren, like most teams, used a five-week break caused by race cancellations in the Middle East because of the war in Iran to make upgrades to its cars. The changes for the reigning world champion team clearly showed it has closed the gap on Mercedes, which has dominated so far this season. The Formula 1 season ahead of Miami had been a clean …

Shiffrin Returns to GS Podium After 2 Years. Hector Wins and Moltzan Second

SPINDLERUV MLYN, Czech Republic (AP) — Mikaela Shiffrin is back on a World Cup giant slalom podium after two years. And she could have hardly picked a better moment to do so. “It’s been two years since I was on the podium in GS, and more than one year since I believed I could be on the podium in GS. It’s amazing for me,” Shiffrin said. The race was won by defending Olympic champion Sara Hector, who held on to her opening run lead for her first victory since January 2025. “You always have to keep working, it’s so many strong girls as you can see today,” the Swede said in a course-side interview. “I am super happy that in the end I crossed the finish line first. That’s a really cool feeling.” Shiffrin, the 2018 Olympic GS gold medalist, trailed Hector by 0.23 seconds. Second-placed American Paula Moltzan was 0.18 off the pace in a strong showing by the U.S. team; Nina O’Brien was fifth and AJ Hurt eighth. Shiffrin holds the women’s record …

The glossy longform advert for the world’s most expensive car race, or F1® the Movie as it prefers to be known, sent shockwaves around Hollywood when it was included this morning on the Academy’s 10-strong list of nominees for Best Picture. Many critics were not amused. This, after all, is a film that was dismissed as a “vanity project” when it was released last June. “F1 in Best Picture is like the real life version of the clown soldier lined up with the other soldiers,” observed writer Shea Serrano, referring to a popular meme, while sighed: “What are we doing here guys?” Keen observers of the Academy Awards were less surprised. After all, the whole reason the Academy increased the …
