Officially added to the 2022 F1 calendar since last spring, the Miami Grand Prix knows the official dates of the first edition in its history. It is scheduled for May 8 on a 5,41 kilometer track which contains 19 turns and 3 straights located around Hard Rock Stadium. With the Grand Prix of the Americas in Austin (Texas) since 2012, the United States now has two dates in the same season on its soil, a first since 1984 when F1 went to Dallas and Detroit in the same year. After Florida, Riverside (California), Watkins Glen (New York), Long Beach (California), Detroit (Michigan), Dallas (Texas), Phoenix (Arizona), Indianapolis (Indiana) and therefore Austin (Texas), the route of Miami will therefore be the eleventh to host a Grand Prix of Formula 1 in the history of Uncle Sam's country. 

Happy on this Thursday, September 23, Richard Cregan, CEO of the Miami Grand Prix, is already meeting F1 fans. “There is no doubt in my mind that the Formula 1 community and the sport's fan base around the world will be amazed by what they see next May. This location is already well known for creating unforgettable experiences for events like the Super Bowl and the Miami Open. We look forward to hosting a brand new global sporting event.”

Concerning the show, his partner, Tom Garfinkel, talks about a new circuit which will welcome “great races” in order to offer fans “an unparalleled experience”. “There has been considerable enthusiasm and anticipation for this event, he continues. We’re happy to be able to announce the date so people can start planning it.”
