An F1 fan from the UK has highlighted a problem on social media that prevented them from viewing the Miami Grand Prix sprint race, despite having a valid ticket. They compared the race venue to other European Grand Prix circuits where the issue is reportedly non-existent.
The fan uploaded a video from the rpace stands, showing how the crowd stood up when the F1 cars passed by, blocking their view entirely.

Expressing their disappointment, the fan revealed how they had flown all the way from the UK for the Miami GP and had paid for seats from which they could not view the race.
Unfortunately, one pregnant woman with them found it difficult to stand throughout the race, and thus, they were left with no option but to remain seated.

The fan revealed how they had been to other F1 races, such as the Spanish Grand Prix and the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, but never experienced their view being blocked this way.
Asking F1 and the Miami GP organizers for help, the fan wrote on Instagram:

“Flew from the UK for the Miami GP and paid for seats we couldn’t actually use. Everyone stood the whole race, so we had zero visibility.
“We’ve been to other races like Spanish Grand Prix and Emilia Romagna Grand Prix and never experienced anything like this.
“One of us is pregnant and physically couldn’t stand for long periods just to try and see.
“Surely this isn’t the experience fans should have.
“Just hoping this can be made right.
