Miami GP’s fans “more open” to F1 sprint format, says Epp
Tyler Epp, who previously worked with Chip Ganassi Racing, was promoted to a key role in Miami GP’s evolution as it prepares for its third race of a 10-year deal with F1. Miami and China will be added to the sprint race roster in 2024, while Baku and Spa-Francorchamps will return to standard formats. Epp believes in evolving the event year-to-year and creating a quality experience for fans. Miami’s race organizers credit their partnership with F1 and the discussions led by Katharina Nowak for the new format. They aim to differentiate their race and cater to both traditional and non-traditional F1 fans. Epp is not worried about ticket sales, as their focus is on providing value and a great experience to attendees rather than chasing masses of people.
