It was fitting that Carlos Sainz and Lewis Hamilton collided at the penultimate corner of the Miami Grand Prix as they were both facing similar issues. Hamilton’s frustration with his team overshadowed Sainz’s complaints, as the Spaniard felt powerless and betrayed after being overtaken despite team orders. Sainz’s frustration stemmed from operational mistakes that compromised his race, starting with a strategic error in the wet-dry sprint race qualifying. An incident at the start further damaged Sainz’s car, affecting his performance throughout the race. Despite a strong qualifying, Sainz faced challenges dealing with his teammate Albon and struggled to defend his position against him. The team’s ambiguous instructions led to confusion and tension between Sainz and Albon during the race.
