This move not only cements Gasly\u2019s growing affinity for Miami\u2014home to the thrilling Miami Grand Prix since 2022\u2014but also aligns with his jet-setting lifestyle amid a demanding F1 career.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013by Mark Cipolloni\u2013<\/p>\n<p>The 3,712-square-foot unit, nestled in a 49-story tower designed by the acclaimed architecture firm Arquitectonica, boasts four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a private elevator, soaring 11-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and a bespoke kitchen crafted by Michelin-starred chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten.<\/p>\n<p>Topping it off is a sprawling 1,163-square-foot private terrace offering breathtaking waterfront vistas of Downtown Miami and Biscayne Bay. The building, situated between the vibrant Design District and Midtown, is slated for completion in 2028 and will feature 338 residences alongside 27,500 square feet of ground-floor retail space.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Residents will enjoy an array of premium amenities spread across five floors, including an eighth-floor pool deck, a members-only restaurant and bar, a rooftop pool, a private dining room, an archival library, a juice bar, a mini-market, and a cozy lounge. On the ground level, Jean-Georges\u2019 abc kitchens\u2014a fusion of his celebrated abcV, abc cocina, and abc kitchen concepts\u2014will serve as a culinary highlight.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom the moment this opportunity was introduced to me, it felt like a natural fit,\u201d Gasly stated in a press release. \u201cAs an F1 driver, my life is constantly on the move, so having a home where every detail is handled means everything. Miami Tropic Residences offers effortless living, thoughtful design, and a level of service I value\u2014all in the heart of a city that has become a true global gathering place. The walkability, culture, and energy of the Design District perfectly reflect the lifestyle I enjoy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This purchase comes at a pivotal time for Gasly, who has been a fixture in the F1 paddock since his debut in 2017. Born on February 7, 1996, in Rouen, France, the 30-year-old driver has carved out an impressive career marked by resilience and standout performances. Gasly first burst onto the scene with Toro Rosso (now VCARB) at the 2017 Malaysian Grand Prix, quickly establishing himself as part of the Red Bull junior program.<\/p>\n<p>His breakthrough moment arrived in 2020 with AlphaTauri, where he claimed his maiden Grand Prix victory at the chaotic Italian Grand Prix in Monza\u2014becoming the first French driver to win an F1 race since Olivier Panis in 1996. Over his career, Gasly has amassed five podium finishes, including a dramatic third place at the 2023 Dutch Grand Prix and another at the rain-soaked 2024 S\u00e3o Paulo Grand Prix, both with Alpine. He also holds three fastest laps and has accumulated 458 career points across 178 race entries.<\/p>\n<p>Gasly\u2019s tenure with Alpine, which began in 2023, has seen mixed fortunes. In 2023, he finished 11th in the drivers\u2019 standings with 62 points, highlighted by that Zandvoort podium. The following year, he secured 10th place with 42 points, adapting to the team\u2019s evolving machinery. However, 2025 proved challenging, with Gasly ending the season in 18th position on just 22 points amid a mid-season driver swap\u2014starting alongside rookie Jack Doohan before teaming up with Franco Colapinto. A disqualification at the Chinese Grand Prix for an underweight car added to the hurdles, but Gasly\u2019s commitment to Alpine remains strong, with a contract extension through at least 2028.<\/p>\n<p>As the 2026 F1 season kicks off next month, Gasly will look to rebound and capitalize on Alpine\u2019s developments under the new regulations. His new Miami base could provide a welcome retreat during the North American swing of the calendar, including the Miami GP, where he\u2019s previously shown strong pace\u2014finishing as high as fourth in 2023. For U.S. fans, this investment signals even more opportunities to catch a glimpse of one of F1\u2019s most charismatic figures off the track.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Miami, FL \u2013 February 7, 2026 \u2013 Formula 1 enthusiasts in the United States could soon spot Alpine&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":460796,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[441],"tags":[49,48,578,576,577,82],"class_list":{"0":"post-460795","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-formula-1","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-f1","11":"tag-formula-1","12":"tag-formula1","13":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/460795","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=460795"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/460795\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/460796"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=460795"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=460795"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=460795"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
