Brown on growing Formula 1's US TV audience
McLaren CEO Zak Brown says Formula 1’s next big challenge in the United States is to grow its TV audience, with viewership still “relatively small” compared with major American sports despite having three grands prix in the country. Brown said: "I think it's going to be TV ratings. I think TV ratings are still relatively small compared to the NFLs of the world.

Hamilton on Ferrari examining rivals' front-wing concept
Lewis Hamilton says Ferrari need to examine a front-wing concept he believes Mercedes, McLaren and Red Bull are using to make gains, after Ferrari’s upgrade package underwhelmed at the Miami Grand Prix. Hamilton said: "The others have also taken a step. I heard McLaren brought a step and it was worth much more than they had anticipated. That's not how we have experienced ours. They - Mercedes, McLaren, and Red Bull - are doing something different with their front wing [compared] to us. So we need to look into that to see whether or not there's something we can improve on."

Sainz on Williams turnaround timeline after Miami upgrade
Carlos Sainz says Williams’ turnaround will take “some months” and may not be clear until the last third of the 2026 season, even after the team made progress with its Miami Grand Prix upgrade to address its overweight FW48. Sainz said: "It's going to take some months to finish the turnaround. I think we're going to need to get to the last third of the season to see a proper turnaround. But at least the upgrade worked. The weight of the car came a bit off but we still know there's a bit to go. We have a few bits and pieces coming for the next couple of races. So we're going to keep the positives and make sure we keep focusing on the negatives."

Russell said: "Going back to V8, I think that would obviously be pretty cool. The sustainable fuel topic is a fantastic one, and I think would be great for Formula One. Lighter cars.I think we need to find ways to reduce the cars even more, because I think the weight of cars even more, because I think that has been a positive impact in terms of the racing and the drivability, being able to fight close with one another, but still keep in a way that we can have these overtakes."

Since 2024, every driver to win 3 races in a row has failed to win the drivers' championship that season.
• Oscar Piastri - 2025 ❌
• Max Verstappen - 2025 ❌
• Kimi Antonelli - 2026 ❓
The championship might still be wide open 👀
