Following the sole practice session around the Miami International Autodrome, it's time to qualify for the sprint race!
It was a successful 90-minute outing for Ferrari as Charles Leclerc ended the session at the top of the times, three-tenths ahead of Max Verstappen.
Ferrari will be hoping to continue that strong pace in the upcoming sprint qualifying session and keep Mercedes at bay, after the championship leaders endured a challenging session.
A scrappy lap for George Russell could only put him sixth, while Kimi Antonelli was denied a final push lap due to a power unit issue.
Following a late study of the data, teams are now locked in to send their cars out to qualify for Saturday's shorter race.
Who will come out on top? It's time to find out!
