Mick Schumacher was about to score his first Formula 1 points.
But then there was a crash with Sebastian Vettel.
Miami - Is that bitter!
Sebastian Vettel and Mick Schumacher were on course for points in Miami shortly before the end.
But then there was a crash between the two Germans, for the Aston Martin driver the race was over afterwards, Mick drove his Haas to the finish - but of course not in the points.
What do the drivers have to say after the race?
We summarize the voices.
Carlos Sainz: "After the crash on Friday I had a bit of pain, but today it was fine.
It was a tough race, the car slid around a lot.
In the end it's a good result, we can build on that.
I would have liked more, but it's not bad.”
Charles Leclerc: "It was a very difficult race, we had problems with the medium tires, especially in the first stint.
We were more competitive on the hard tyre.
Red Bull had an advantage on the pace today but it was fun.
Also that so many Ferrari fans are here.
Thank you for being there!
“We just have to keep pushing.
It's very tight, but that's how everyone wants to see it."
Max Verstappen: “It was a great Grand Prix, very exhausting, it was exciting right to the end.
I'm very happy with this win, it was an incredible Sunday for us.”
