Red Bull's Max Verstappen can take another big bite out of Ferrari rival Charles Leclerc's 27-point lead in Miami this weekend as Formula One gets ready to rock around its newest venue.

The pair have each won twice this season, and the fifth round on the fast track laid out around Hard Rock Stadium, home of the Miami Dolphins, could see another big battle between the 24-year-old front-runners.

"I think this weekend is going to be pretty crazy," said Verstappen, the reigning world champion who won last year's U.S. Grand Prix in Austin, Texas.
