Miami GP 🏁
03 May 2026
PIT to ALEX:
P10, up and running. Nice job. Good job at the beginning with the overtakes, and the battling was really good to see. Well done, mate.
ALEX to PIT:
Just need to dig in to why it’s [the balance] is strange.
JV to ALEX:
Thank you, Alex. Well done. That's as many points as we could score as a team today… more performance coming our way and there's more to come.
ALEX to PIT:
Well done on the pit stop.
03 May 2026
PIT to CARLOS:
Very solid race. Much improved on Saturday, and really solid today. Good start, good tyre management, good energy usage. Good job, mate – P9.
CARLOS to PIT:
Thank you, guys. Good race. Kept it cool at the beginning with all the fighting. They were a bit chaotic. Happy with points again. Let’s call this the start of the beginning… oh no, wait. That’s not right. The start of the return.
JV to CARLOS:
Well done, Carlos. That's a really good team effort today. Solid performance from you. Thank you for that. Good to see the update is working and we have more to come. Well done.

Alex within reach of P9
Lap 3. Alex runs P10, 0.4s off the car ahead and right on the gearbox into Turn 17. Same medium tyre, early in the stint, so this is about track position before the pit window opens. Carlos sits P12, 0.3s back from P11, close enough to latch onto the train if it compresses. We run P10 and P12. - Generated by Airia

He pushed me off! He thinks he can do whatever he wants just because he’s racing the midfield.

Chaos at the start, but we’ve kept it clean! Carlos is P10, Alex is P11… but not for long.
