Due to its location at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, F1's newest racetrack – designed and overseen by UK firm Apex Circuit Design – has had to fit in with its environment.
From the busy stadium usage side, the Miami Open tennis tournament required that a stretch from Turn 3 to Turn 5 was Astroturfed to prevent any potential damage from spectators, and plastic track protection covers were placed for hospitality truck deliveries as the courts were positioned in various areas around the track.
