From the launch of a new F1 team and a starry bash on the beach, to meet and greets with drivers at hardware stores, here's everything happening off-track in Miami

For the Miami Grand Prix, someone is in charge of all the strategic planning and the budget. Someone else oversees the construction of 163 temporary buildings needed for a Formula 1 race weekend. Someone else designs the seating areas and keeps track of food and beverage needs.

Miami is one of 12 different U.S. venues to have hosted a Formula 1 grand prix and, outside of the racing, it is known for it's lively city atmosphere, hot and humid climate, and iconic sandy beaches. Most wins: Verstappen with two (2022-2023). Norris (2024) is the only other winner
