You have to go all the way back to the Japanese Grand Prix on March 29 for the last stop on the F1 calendar, with races in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia both cancelled due to the political climate in the Middle East.<\/p>\n
Suzuka was a record-breaking occasion for Mercedes driver Kimi Antonelli, who became the youngest driver to lead the world championship at the age of 19 \u2014 surpassing Lewis Hamilton. <\/p>\n
He was also the first teenager to win back-to-back grands prix, benefitting from a mid-race safety car in Japan to finish ahead of McLaren\u2019s Oscar Piastri and Ferrari\u2019s Charles Leclerc. <\/p>\n
There was frustration for Antonelli\u2019s Mercedes teammate George Russell, who felt he could have won that race without the safety car from Ollie Bearman\u2019s horrendous crash that prompted significant discussions over the safety of the new 2026 cars and regulations \u2014 as you can read below. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"You have to go all the way back to the Japanese Grand Prix on March 29 for the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":253953,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[123,125,124],"class_list":["post-253952","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-miami","tag-miami","tag-miami-headlines","tag-miami-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/253952","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=253952"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/253952\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/253953"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=253952"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=253952"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=253952"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
