New 2026 F1 Miami Grand Prix start time today
Round 4 of the 2026 F1 season takes place today, with the Miami Grand Prix.
The fifth edition of the race since it joined the calendar in 2022, the race marks F1's return to action following a five-week gap and no races in April due to the Bahrain and Saudi Arabian cancellations.
The 57-lap race was originally due to start at 16:00 local time, but due to the growing threat of thunderstorms in Miami on Sunday, the decision was taken on Saturday after qualifying to bring the start time forward by three hours.
This means the race will begin at 13:00 local time - 18:00 BST in the UK.
