Tips & Tricks
Miami is the first race of the 2023 season where you have a good chance of seeing rain, so prepare to break from strategy to fit a wet compound.
- Make a note of the forecast going into the Miami race weekend. Rain part way into qualifying can cause a major upset in the grid placements.
- If rain is forecast for the race, opening on mediums lets you hold a good pace while you wait for the clouds to force a swap to intermediate tyres.
- Be ready to change back to dry tyres after rain clouds pass or defend your position on intermediates if the race is in its final laps.
