George Russell has taken pole position in FP2, overtaking Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc who had previously topped the standings in the first-ever Miami Grand Prix practice session. The Mercedes driver set the fastest lap time of 1m 29.938s, to edge ahead of Championship leader Leclerc, who finished 0.106s off the pace.
Si había que esperar a un punto de inflexión para encontrar el fin de la mala suerte de Carlos Sainz, quizás era ese: el trompo a máxima velocidad que sufrió entre las curvas cuatro y cinco, rapidísimas, y que se saldó con un susto sin más cuando el mínimo roce con los muros habría fastidiado el viernes a cualquiera. Un segundo con la respiración entrecortada y ya está, a seguir corriendo. Arrancó el GP de Miami con roces para algunos (como Verstappen) y choques para otros, como Bottas, que forzó la primera bandera roja del fin de semana cuando estrelló el Alfa Romeo contra las protecciones.
Con dos ceros consecutivos, y dos carreras que terminaron prácticamente al empezar, Carlos Sainz (Madrid, 27 años) va a la contra desde el quinto gran premio de la temporada. Al menos es uno de los pilotos ‘locales’ en Miami, en la capital del mundo latino se habla español, y la próxima parada del Mundial será el gran premio de casa, hablando con propiedad. Buen sitio, Miami, para darle la vuelta a un arranque repleto de complicaciones. Antes de subirse al coche, el piloto de Ferrari habla con AS sobre lo que viene este fin de semana. Marcha quinto en el Mundial.
