  1. Virtual Safety Car ending

    Lap 30/57

    Lando Norris is next into pit for the hard compound but he stays behind McLaren team-mate Oscar Piastri. George Russell pays a visit to the Mercedes pit box and now has a great chance to pass Max Verstappen - and he does it. Russell is out in third spot with Verstappen now in fourth.

  2. Virtual Safety Car

    Lap 29/57

    Oliver Bearman has an issue and is running slowly on track. Pit crews are getting to react as the Haas continues to struggle. The virtual safety car is deployed and the likes of Lewis Hamilton come in for a stop. McLaren welcome Oscar Piastri for a set of hards.

  3. Verstappen on the move

    Lap 28/57

    It doesn't take long for Max Verstappen to begin his trek towards the front of the grid and his first target is the Ferrari of Lewis Hamilton. Job done and the Red Bull driver is now fifth.

  4. Lap 27/57

    Red Bull have reacted to that Mercedes pit stop and Max Verstappen comes in. The Dutchman is now a hard tyre runner like Italian teenager Kimi Antonelli and is back out into the mix in seventh place.

  5. 'Norris is nibbling into the lead'

    My eye is on Lando Norris, he keeps putting in fastest laps and he's nibbling into the lead of Oscar Piastri.

    Piastri will be deciding how hard to push to extend the stint that he's on these tyres.

  6. Lap 26/57

    Mercedes call Kimi Antonelli in to try to undercut Max Verstappen but it's a slow stop as the Italian is held longer than expected. He rejoins the action in ninth place.

    Jeremiah Kariuki: That's a real struggle for Ferrari and Hamilton to make a pass! Real battle to overtake the Haas

  8. Lap 25/57

    Lando Norris is clocking purple laps, however, so the Briton is trying to hunt down his rapid team-mate, who will bank a fourth win of the season if he can hold on to this lead.

    Watch out if you're heading to Turn 17, as Norris is told the rain is on the way and that particular corner will get it the most.

  9. 'I can't see this rain coming anytime soon'

    As I look out to the skies it's very white, it was black at the start of this race and those clouds have disappeared.

    I can't see this rain coming anytime soon.

    Lando Norris has just set two consecutive fastest laps and closed on his team-mate Oscar Piastri by three-tenths on both of them. Let's see if Norris can keep cutting away at that.

  11. Lap 24/57

    So we've had a few drivers come into the pits now. Gabriel Bortoleto was first in, Isack Hadjar has switched rubber and Esteban Ocon is next to make a stop. Oscar Piastri, meanwhile, is over eight seconds clear of his chasing team-mate Lando Norris.

  12. Lap 23/57

    Grappling complete for Lewis Hamilton - he's finally snatched 10th place away from Esteban Ocon with some hard and fair racing. Charles Leclerc is eighth, Hamilton will come away with a point if it stays like this.

  13. 'Ocon will not make it easy for Hamilton'

    Damon Hill
    1996 world champion on BBC Radio 5 Live in Miami

    Esteban Ocon has a reputation of being a bit of a hard racer so Lewis Hamilton better work this one out properly and make it a clean pass because Ocon will not make it easy.

  14. Lap 22/57

    The race has been quiet for Ferrari so far. Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton are struggling to move up the order. The seven-time world champion is in 11th place but he is grappling with Esteban Ocon's Haas for the final points place.

  15. Lap 21/57

    Decision made - no further investigation for the Verstappen-Norris incident. Carlos Sainz is also cleared of gaining an advantage. Carry on, guys.

    A lot of the drivers are starting to complain about their tyres.

    Every engineer up and down the pit lane is looking at the clouds and their weather app and wondering when this rain will come.

  17. Lap 20/57

    Race leader Oscar Piastri is nine seconds ahead of his team-mate Lando Norris, with Max Verstappen a further two seconds back. The stewards have noted that incident between Max Verstappen and Lando Norris, but the McLaren man did give the place back.

  18. 'Verstappen just left the space open'

    Andrew Benson
    BBC F1 correspondent in Miami

    It was almost like Max Verstappen had just given up, he didn't defend at all, he just left the space open for Lando Norris which is very, very unlikely.

  19. Lap 19/57

    Carlos Sainz has been noted for leaving the track and gaining an advantage. The Spaniard is still seventh, one place behind Williams team-mate Alex Albon.

    George Russell says it's starting to rain...

  20. Norris overtakes Verstappen

    Lap 18/57

    That one sticks! Lando Norris bides his time and makes the overtake count this time with a move down the inside at Turn 11.
