Miami Grand Prix FP1 session extended to 90 minutes

The sole practice session of the Miami Grand Prix weekend will now run for 90 minutes.

The session during the Miami weekend – which takes place across May 1-3 – will now run from 1200 to 1330 local time, meaning that all other track sessions scheduled prior to FP1 will also move forwards by 30 minutes.

A statement from the FIA confirming the news reads: “This decision has been taken in recognition of the gap since the last Grand Prix, the recently announced regulatory and technical adjustments, and the fact that as the Miami Grand Prix operates under the Sprint format which reduces the amount of practice time available over the course of the weekend.”

The remainder of the event will run as originally planned, with Sprint Qualifying being held at 1630 local time later on Friday before the second Sprint of the season takes place at 1200 on Saturday.

"SF-26 - R04 spec

Slightly better angle of the floorboard, though the resolution is still not great. I stand corrected. Image by Leonardo Boschi.

1. Outboard footplate strake added. The FWEP itself seems largely similar, concluded using other angles.

2. It seems only 2 vertical elements are present on the floorboard, contrary to what I suggested in the quoted post. This makes a lot more sense from a legality POV. Some edge treatment on the inner element was potentially playing tricks on me in the post below. But again, it's hard to be conclusive.

3. Double crease line added to RWEP. Potentially delays separation of the mid-rear tyre wake to allow for greater diffuser lateral expansion. The upswashing nature will also add a tiny amount of local load. Seen on many cars since 2023.

4. Revised FTM (Flick Tail Module). Change is noticeable, but details are indiscernible with this photo.

5. The halo appendages are clear to see, now in carbon."

"Have Ferrari changed position of the rearmost, upper wishbone, on the front suspension? Left is old spec, right is new Monza spec. I think there’s a change."

"Good spot here.

Yes, it has been moved. They've designed the upper wishbone rear linkage with multiple pickup points as Mercedes did a couple years ago or so IIRC.

The inboard pickup points use a titanium clevis that's fixed via structural epoxy adhesive or mechanical fasteners like bolt/screws into the chassis.

This is not something that can be added in after the fact. So they've designed in some flexibility from day 0."

Yet its all over the media. Ex drivers, F1 pundits on Youtube/tv discussing it.
So maybe you the problem.
Not that we would expect anything else from someone that change their name every month and deleted all his/her/they/them comment after they/them posted it.

Well it is back just in time. The F1 withdrawal was starting to make Netflix DTS seam like a tempting option for an F1 fix .........🥸
