Ferrari to add blue to F1 car for Miami GP
Ferrari will race at the Miami Grand Prix with a colour scheme featuring two different shades of blue to mark its history in the United States, the team announced on Tuesday.
The Italian outfit, famous for racing in its distinctive shade of red, will unveil the new look ahead of the Florida race on May 6.

The livery will mark 70 years since the manufacturer entered the U.S. marketplace.
In the early days of motor racing, nations were unofficially given ‘racing colours’ — Italian teams would race in red, with the Rosso Corsa shade becoming synonymous with Ferrari in the 20th Century, while American teams traditionally raced with blue. This custom is where “British racing green” comes from.
Ferrari has confirmed it will use shades called Azzurro La Plata and Azzurro Dino.
The Italian team has used throwback liveries in the past, with a special shade of red for its 1000th race in 2020.
Ferrari did not confirm the extent to which the blue shades will replace the team’s traditional red colours on its car in Miami.
The United States is expected to announce the indictment of former Cuban leader Raúl Castro at an event in Miami on Wednesday, and CBS News Miami will be airing the historic moment on-air and online.
Why is Raúl Castro being indicted?
Raúl Castro, 94, the younger brother of longtime dictator Fidel Castro, is expected to face charges related to the deadly 1996 shootdown of two Brothers to the Rescue planes, as CBS News was first to report last week.
This comes as the U.S. continues to pile on the pressure on the Cuban government.
In recent months the Trump administration has threatened heavy tariffs on countries that export oil to Cuba, and that has led to widespread blackouts amid an economic and energy crisis.
How to watch the expected Raúl Castro indictment
CBS News Miami will begin special streaming coverage starting at 12:30 p.m.
Starting at 1 p.m., the United States Department of Justice is expected to make the announcement at an event in Miami.
You can stream special coverage starting at 12:30 p.m. on this page, or download the free CBS News app on your mobile or streaming device. The announcement from the DOJ will be broadcast live on CBS News Miami Channel 4, as well as the cbsnews.com/miami live stream.
2026 Patriot League ‘A’ finalist Marin Priddy will transfer and join the Miami-FL women for the upcoming 2026-2027 season. Priddy just finished her sophomore season with American.
“I am extremely excited to announce that I’ll be continuing my academic and athletic career at the University of Miami! I’m so grateful for this opportunity and so thankful for the amazing coaches at Miami!
I’m going to cherish the past two years at American and am so happy to have made the great memories and friends there. I’m excited for this next chapter! GO CANES”
Originally from San Clemente, California, Priddy arrived on campus in Washington DC in fall 2024. She had a strong freshman season and finished her year at the 2025 Patriot League Championships scoring 26 individual points. She was highlighted by personal bests in the 50 free (23.74) and 100 breast (1:04.71).
She returned for her sophomore season and had a breakout season. She concluded her sophomore year at the 2026 Patriot League Championships and scored 63.5 individual points. She most notably was 5th in the 100 breast with a 1:02.45 and 6th in the 50 free with a 23.29. She also had strong relay splits including a 27.78 50 breast, 1:02.05 100 breast, and a 22.85 50 free.
Luddy’s Time Progression:
| High School | Freshman | Sophomore | |
| 100 breast | 1:04.82 | 1:04.71 | 1:02.45 |
| 50 free | 24.13 | 23.74 | 23.29 |
| 100 free | 53.32 | 52.54 | 51.3 |
The Miami-FL women finished 12th out of 15 teams at the 2026 ACC Championships with 322 points. Divers Margo O’Meara and Chiara Pellacani led the way with 60 individual points each. Ashlyn Massey led the swimmers with 29 individual points.
Based on her best times, Luddy is a huge pick up for the team’s breaststroke and sprint free groups. Her 100 breast time would have led the team by almost two seconds this past season as Zofia Sobczak led the team with a 1:04.26. It took a 1:02.20 to earn a 2nd swim at the 2026 ACC Championships. Luddy would have also been 4th on the roster in the 50 free, earning her sprint free relay potential as well.
Luddy joins fellow transfer Kaelia Hughes who will arrive from Arizona State. Hughes is also primarily a breaststroker with best times of a 1:01.40 100 breast and a 2:13.09 200 breast.
Two men from Germany were arrested after police said they were caught on surveillance video defacing a bench with antisemitic graffiti in Miami Beach.
Authorities said it happened Monday at around 5:34 p.m., when Miami Beach police officers responded to the area of 12th Street and Ocean Drive.
Police said officers found writing including a swastika and the words “Adolf Was Here” on an LGBTQIA+ bench located within Lummus Park.
Using surveillance video from city cameras, police were able to track down the two men involved.

MIAMI BEACH POLICE DEPARTMENT Two men from Germany were arrested after police said they were caught on surveillance video defacing a bench with antisemitic graffiti in Miami Beach.
According to arrest reports, the footage shows how 58-year-old Christoph Rehak asked one of his friends for a marker, then he and 63-year-old Gunther Jekschtat sat on the bench next to each other.
“Mr. Rehak began to write on the bench while Mr. Jekschtat blocked him with his body so he could not be seen,” an arrest report states.
All of the men then left the area before they were tracked down to the Colony Hotel. Police saw them leaving and “quickly detained them.”
The group was taken to the Miami Beach Police Station to be interviewed, where Rehak allegedly confessed and said he wrote on the bench “as a joke.” He also allowed police to view his phone, where photos of the graffiti were found, police said.
Jekschtat, meanwhile, allegedly confessed to being aware that Rehak had written the antisemitic graffiti and purposely blocked him “to defend his friend,” according to an arrest report.
“He also apologized for lying” and “explained to the officers that he did not known why Mr. Rehak wrote that specific remark he believed he did it as a joke,” the report states.
In Florida, crimes are subject to increased penalties if there’s evidence of certain prejudice. These are known as hate crimes.
“Upon being further interviewed, Mr. Rehak did not show intent of the remark as being a hate crime,” an arrest report states. Further details were not immediately available.
Rehak and Jekschtat were arrested and charged with criminal mischief of more than $200 and less than $1,000.
