The first edition of the Miami Grand Prix is reportedly in danger of being cancelled after residents submitted a lawsuit against the race.
Some Miami Gardens homeowners have long opposed Formula 1 setting up shop in Florida and are making one final attempt to get the new addition scrapped. The inaugural race around the Hard Rock Stadium is slated to take place on May 8, leaving barely three weeks for a final decision on the matter.
