MIAMI GARDENS — The Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix announced Sept. 23 that its first event will be held from May 6-8, 2022.

As with all rounds of the FIA Formula 1 World Championship, the action will be split across all three days, with practice on Friday, qualifying on Saturday and the Grand Prix on Sunday, together with a host of other action and entertainment throughout the weekend.

“We’ve worked hard to create a track with great racing and a venue with unparalleled fan experiences,” Tom Garfinkel, Miami Grand Prix Managing Partner, said in a statement. “There has been tremendous enthusiasm and anticipation for this event, and we’re happy to be able to announce the date so that people can start planning for it.”

Construction of the Miami International Autodrome within the Hard Rock Stadium campus has continued since the laying of super-smooth racing asphalt was completed. In the coming weeks, the innovative range of ticketing and hospitality options available to savor the occasion will be unveiled in what organizers believe will be another new landmark for F1® and Miami.

“There is no doubt in my mind that the Formula 1 community and the sport’s fanbase worldwide are going to be amazed by what they see next May,” Miami Grand Prix CEO, Richard Cregan, Miami Grand Prix CEO, said in a statement.
