Max Verstappen took a bold approach to the race at last weekend’s F1 Miami Grand Prix
Lando Norris finished second in the Miami Grand Prix, while Max Verstappen ended up in fifth place.
Despite their past rivalries and championship battles, Norris was puzzled by Verstappen’s race tactics in Miami.
In the 2025 season, Norris narrowly defeated the four-time champion Verstappen for the title, but this year both drivers seem out of contention for the championship due to performance drops by their teams.
During the Miami race, Norris and Verstappen fought for a podium finish, with Norris trailing race winner Kimi Antonelli by just three seconds.
Verstappen’s race took a turn for the worse early on after making mistakes on the first lap, hindering his chances of winning.
Even though Verstappen showed some aggressive overtakes reminiscent of his past performances, he struggled with tire management and eventually finished fifth.
In post-race discussions, Norris, along with Antonelli and Piastri, couldn’t understand the decisions Verstappen made during the Grand Prix.
