5 FUN FACTS ABOUT THE MIAMI FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX

A curious past

To date, there have been 76 F1 Grand Prix races held in the USA, including 11 editions of the Indianapolis 500 from 1950 to 1960. One of the most curious races in history occurred at Indianapolis in 2005: only 6 cars started because the others used tires from a manufacturer that advised teams not to race due to safety concerns. The 6 cars finished, with the third and fourth finishing one lap down and the fifth and sixth finishing two laps down. All 6 cars used Brembo braking components.

Supercars and colors

Supercars are a common sight on Miami streets, with owners often favoring flashy colors. Last March, over 120 road cars worth more than $50 million gathered for a rally on the Miami Bridge. These cars showcased horsepower and vibrant hues, not only on their bodies but also on their brake calipers-an increasingly popular way to express individuality. The association of supercars with vibrant colors naturally brings to mind Brembo, which produces car calipers in over 150 different colors, including a unique "pink" for a very special customer.
