High-Stakes Setback: Isack Hadjar's Disqualification Shakes Up Miami Grand Prix Grid

Isack Hadjar has been disqualified from the Miami Grand Prix qualifying session due to a technical fault on his Red Bull, moving him to the back of the grid. This decision comes after an infringement involving the car's floorboard. The race start was moved due to weather concerns.

Isack Hadjar will begin the Miami Grand Prix in an unexpected turn of events, starting from the grid's rear after being disqualified from the qualifying round. The FIA announced that Hadjar's Red Bull breached the technical regulations, prompting a sudden shake-up in the starting lineup.

Initially qualifying ninth, Hadjar's disqualification facilitated Alpine's Pierre Gasly's advance to his slot, while Audi's Nico Hulkenberg has moved up to tenth place. The issue stemmed from Hadjar's vehicle, which violated technical specifications due to an inadvertently protruding floorboard, a mistake acknowledged by Red Bull.

With the race schedule adjusted to anticipate adverse weather conditions around the Hard Rock Stadium, which forecast thunderstorms, the grid now sees Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli taking pole position for the third consecutive race.
