How Miami’s Debut Formula 1 Race Came Together, From Track To Food
The three.36-mile observe on the grounds of Miami Gardens’ Onerous Rock Stadium provides the house of the Miami Dolphins and the Miami Open tennis event a 3rd main sporting occasion. However to get there, count on not solely the creation of a brand new Formulation 1 observe, however the non permanent creation of a completely new F1 world in Miami for the Could 6-8 Miami Grand Prix.
“In essence, the vast majority of the Miami Open campus has been repurposed for Formulation 1 and Onerous Rock Stadium has been and can proceed to be the centerpiece of our Formulation 1 operation, housing the groups, drivers, media and creating a surprising backdrop for, what we imagine, might be among the finest circuits on the Formulation 1 schedule,” says Tyler Epp, COO of the Formulation One Crypto.com Miami Grand Prix. “The overwhelming majority of the Miami Worldwide Autodrome is non permanent. It has been a monumental effort by our total workforce to get the circuit, and the remainder of the campus, to the place we’re.”
The Web site
The observe marks the centerpiece of the latest cease on one of many world’s hottest sporting circuits. The Miami Worldwide Autodrome observe weaves by way of the Onerous Rock Stadium website, nearing the stadium on three sides.
The observe itself options 19 corners with the longest of the three straights at 4,212 ft. The observe widens to 50 ft on one straight and narrows to 32.7 ft at different factors, with the tightest of the corners a 33-foot radius.
Epp says the circuit targeted on making a aggressive setting for the drivers and groups. “Our workforce labored to create a number of passing zones, quite a lot of corners and a very difficult set of comers in turns 14, 15 and 16,” he says. “We’ve got taken what the veterans of the business have realized from different tracks designed all through the world, but additionally got down to give Miami Worldwide Autodrome its personal identification.”
To make the observe, crews used 48 million kilos of asphalt—a complete of 85,000 yards—and a pair of.3 million kilos of concrete.
Whereas the observe will not go wherever following the inaugural race, a lot of what’s seen throughout the weekend occasion will not keep. Non permanent constructions abound, equating to about 98% of all of the infrastructure wanted—arguably the world’s largest pop-up sporting occasion—with 10 bridges, 10 grandstands, 13 multi-level hospitality constructions, 40 single-level hospitality constructions and 173 tents all constructed for the weekend. A artifical marina will even give the positioning a beachfront really feel.
“At this level, the one construction that’s constructed as a everlasting construction is the primary story of the Pit & Paddock Constructing, which offers storage stalls for the FIA, Formulation 1 and all the groups,” Epp says. “Every part else is a brief construction.”
The Meals
Sodexo Reside! says internet hosting 85,000 folks per day for 3 consecutive days might be akin to internet hosting three Tremendous Bowls back-to-back-to-back on campus. To make it occur, the meals and beverage companions of the NFL’s Miami Dolphins and Onerous Rock Stadium will herald 34 native restaurant companions, together with a pair of Michelin-starred eating places.
“It’s the identical thought, the identical recipe for achievement,” Steve Pangburn, Sodexo Reside! North American CEO, says about internet hosting Formulation 1 as a Dolphins recreation or Miami Open, “the place we herald native companions and adapt all our menus, so and really feel that you simply’re in Miami.”
The problem comes within the scope of the size and trickiness of the logistics on a website. “In a stadium bowl, you might be used to operating it in the identical spot,” Pangburn says. “It is a full campus. There’s a lot occurring within the stadium, however it isn’t the place the place all the things is occurring. We may have so many areas which can be activated.” It quantities to a scale 3 times that of an NFL recreation.
With 75 kitchens on the positioning and 850 factors of sale, Pangburn says they turn into not solely culinarians but additionally logistical consultants. “When the race is occurring you may’t get out to distant areas,” he says. “It’s important to have the meals, the groups on the market and in a position to produce.”
The slate of native restaurant ideas consists of Casa Tua, Michelin-starred eating places COTE Miami and Kosushi Miami, Suviche, Novecento, CHIC
CHIC
The main target from govt chef Dayanny De La Cruz helps that already native really feel. The self-professed mega-fan of F1 is creating her personal Miami-centric spin, all with inspiration from the feel and appear of the game. “We do not desire a cookie-cutter expertise we might herald from New York,” Pangburn says. “It’s all pushed by Miami. There are simply so many selections, that native flavoring might be an expertise.”
From rock shrimp ceviche to filet mignon bites and crab avocado toast to mini Cuban egg sandwiches, smoked marlin dip and a wagyu scorching canine, De La Cruz has a menu designed for the weekend. Her workforce, with about 30 cooks from across the nation introduced in for the occasion, may even work to craft the menus of a number of the restaurant companions.
All through the positioning, the workforce has labored to create completely different zones, together with premium areas, a meals truck space and even seven yachts delivered to the artifical waterfront. The main target, although, is not about numbers, however about selection and high quality. “Individuals are paying some huge cash to get these tickets and be there,” he says. “They’re on the lookout for a tremendous high-quality expertise.” The purpose is to supply that in a completely Miami really feel, one which entices followers to make a return journey for future Miami Grand Prix occasions.

Predictions For New England Patriots @ Miami Dolphins
With our Miami Dolphins hosting the New England Patriots tomorrow afternoon, I asked the two customary prediction questions this past week. Below are the questions, with some of your answers to each.
A) What will be the final score in this week’s Miami Dolphins game against the New England Patriots?
B) What other predictions do you have for the upcoming game against the Patriots? (stars of the game, etc.)
Alley Gator sees the Phins win by reverting to their old ways.
I expect a big dose of Rhamonde Stevenson running and receiving, short passes to TE’s Hooper and Henry to try to keep our offense off the field. Last week, the Rams WR’s Puka and Kupp both went over 100 yards on the Patsies, so we’ll revert to bombs away to Hill and Waddle. NE dominates time of possession, but we win on a couple of big plays. Dolphins 21, Pats 13
Alpha6 has the Dolphins more than double up on the Pats off a solid day from the defense.
Points: Dolphins 35, Cheatriots 17 There will be a pick 6 by the Dolphins’ D. There will be 4 sacks by the Dolphins’ D to go with that.
62Lou predicts that the overwhelming talent of the Phins wins the day.
Miami SHOULD WIN this game, at home against a rookie QB.
These division games are tough tho, and I expect a real fight. But Miami simply has TOO MUCH TALENT TO LOSE, unless McNerd and Tua blow it.
NO EXCUSES – FIRE THE NERD IF WE LOSE…
Miami 27 NE 20..
the spread of Miami at -7.5 is too much, we barely covered last week at the 3:19 mark in the 4th qtr. a blown coverage on the TE saved us, after needing 10 and 12 play drives all day, we got a cheap one.
DolphinsKings1 sees domination on both sides of the ball.
Pathetics 16 Dolphins 40 (I see a smack down)!
PASSING (244 in the air)
Tua 27 of 37 244 yards 3 TD’s Ints 0
RUSHING (214 on the ground)
Achane 25 carries 91 yards 1 TD
Wright 11 carries 96 yards
Mostert 9 carries 27 yards
RECEIVING
Jonnu 9 catches 69 yards 1 TD
Hill 8 catches 83 yards
Waddle 6 catches 57 yards 1 TD
Achane 4 catches 35 yards 1 TD
KICKING
Jason 4 for 4 FG’s 33,27,23,and 27
1 Punt
DEFENSE (only allows 187 total yards)
3 Sacks – Campbell 1, Holland 1 FF and R, and Sieler 1
2 Interceptions – Poyer 1 and Kohou 1
daytonadolfan is a day late but was shorted no dollars…
A day behind but I think it will be 31-13 Dolphins!
finfanfromsiam has the Phins winning a close one.
This is still a division game so not going to predict a blowout. We have a tendency to make rookies and nobodies into Montana. So going with 23-16. For stars of the game going with Jonnu and Achane.
David7777 is predicting the Pats to have their worst game of 2024. That’s a very low bar!
Worst game of the year for the Patriots
3 Interceptions and 2 Fumbles D-Line all over Maye this game
Dolphins 42-10
Tua2HillWaddle sees the defense keeping New England out of the endzone.
Fins 29-12. 2 fumble recoveries and 2 pics deep in NE territory. Defense only allows 4 fg’s.
EzDz73 predicts a struggle of a game resulting in a win by a TD for Miami.
This will likely be another hard fought division game. I predict the Fins for the win, 27-20
heatforlife sees Juliann Hill’s play as an indicator of the direction of the team.
when juliann hill has a good game u know things are trending in the right direction.pats gonna be a close game .think we win but not by much.30 24 fins.need fuller back healthy kohou on the bench forever.duck cb 3 cam cb4 kohou cb0.
Dolfanjoe believes that the Pats are already tanking.
Pat’s battling for the # 1 spot in the draft! Which they are hoping to trade for first-rounders for years to come. They will put on a show and see it Fins 27 Pat’s 17 . 10 – 10 at halftime worrying the local supporters !
SabanpickedCulpepper is unhappy with the new ball control offense that the Phins are running.
Defense needs to force punts, when our offense takes 8 minute drives and kicks fgs and our D can’t get off the field it’s counter productive. We’re actually decreasing our number of offense possessions
Spok507 is a fan of the new ball-control offense.
One game at a time. Ball control and clock control will bring us a win and we inch closer to getting a play-off berth. It’ll be a complete change of pace for the Fins to actually be peaking at the right time of the season and have some forward momentum carrying them into the Thanksgiving Prime Time game at Green Bay. I’m ready for it. Just concentrate on beating NE; control the LoS on both sides of the ball, stick with the ground game, take what the defense gives and force NE’s rookie QB into making mistakes.
As for the injury report, maybe Poyer should actually practice instead of ‘rest’ — seems like he could use the reps. McMorris was a full participant, so maybe he’ll see action and replace Poyer. We can only hope. Fuller is still out due to concussion, but this is week 3, so I’m hoping he’ll be off the list soon. We need Kohou back in the nickel and not covering the boundry until he remembers how to tackle. We also need Ingold back to help the run game. We’ll know more after today’s injury report.
SlayerNation1 predicts that the Phins will win but once again fails to close out a game early.
MIA 27 NE 16
Similar to last week, Miami never trails but allows
NE to hang around unnecessarily, until the 3rd quarter.
NE will extend drives with Maye’s mobility and easy pitch and catch to TEs Henry/Hooper.
Miami’s newly found ball control offense works again due to the fact they never trail. Waddle and Holland again do very little. Jonnu and Achane are the offense again,
TommyNascar believes that we should have already given up on the season.
We will win, end up 9-8, miss the playoffs and stuck in the mediocrity cycle. I would rather we lost out starting a few weeks ago, pull the tooth now, get the #1 pick and grab a new qb to start building for the future. I just don’t see championship caliber here now.
Well that’s our random selection of comments this week. There is a lot of positivity from the fans, at least here at the Phinsider overall. Well, from most of you. Time will see! Thank you to each of you who took the time to read and comment on our question of the day post. Please join us tomorrow afternoon for our live thread to follow our Miami Dolphins against the New England Patriots.
