What is the F1 Sprint weekend format?
Miami marks the second of 24 rounds of the 2025 Formula 1 world championship that will be contested under the Sprint weekend format, which differs from the traditional three practice/qualifying/grand prix schedule.

Following a single practice session early on Friday, teams will have an abbreviated 44-minute three-round knockout qualifying session similar to the traditional 60-minute, three-round format. That will set the grid for a roughly 100-kilometer (1/3 grand prix distance) Sprint race that takes place early on Saturday. There is no mandatory pit stop to change tire compounds — tire wear isn't an issue with the shorter distance — and championship points are awarded for the top eight finishers of the sprint in descending order (eight points for the win, seven for second place, six for third, etc.).
The teams return later Saturday for the usual grand prix qualifying session that sets the grid for Sunday's main event. Miami marks the first Sprint weekend of the season with the remaining rounds consisting of Belgium (July 25-27), United States at Austin (Oct. 17-19), Sao Paulo (Nov. 7-9) and Qatar (Nov. 28-30).

Weather for the Miami Grand Prix
The Yahoo weather weekend forecast for Miami calls for temperatures in the low 80s. Clear skies on Friday for practice and Sprint qualifying, with more than a 50% chance of rain on Saturday and Sunday. If there is scattered precipitation, the high air temperatures should dry the track at least adequately enough for cars to run their intermediate or wet-weather tires should the conditions preclude teams from running slicks.

Doug Flutie joins Eastern Bank's push to revive the Brockton Rox, as a pitcher
It all started with New York Boulders owner Bill Janetschek's decision to buy both the Rox name, which had been used by a college team, and the New England Knockouts team, which was playing in Campanelli as part of the Frontier League. The Janetschek-led ownership group acquired the Knockouts and renamed the team the Rox, a callback to the pro team that previously drew crowds to the 4,750-seat stadium. Advertisement Mayor Bob Sullivan approached Eastern Bank executive chair Bob Rivers about helping the ownership team (which includes Red Sox legend Jim Rice, and Rox team president Shawn Reilly) revive the Rox. Rivers had heard this story before, with different owners. But he realized Janetschek, the retired chief financial officer of private equity giant KKR, might have the wherewithal to pull it off. So Rivers and his staff held weekly calls with the new Rox ownership to brainstorm ways to drive traffic to the Rox games, and in turn help bring more people into Brockton to support local businesses. Advertisement Janetschek said there has been a significant uptick in attendance this summer after a choppy spring, in large part due to Rivers's help. Janetschek has started talking with Sullivan about a longer lease to use the city-owned stadium. 'If Bob Rivers wasn't here, I don't know if we would have made it through the season,' Janetschek said. 'It's ... helping build his brand for Eastern as well as introducing and building the brand for the Rox.' At one point during these weekly calls, the idea of recruiting Flutie, who was already working with Eastern, came up. The former New England Patriot had galvanized the crowd at a Savannah Bananas game in June, by making the first pitch and then not leaving the mound until the game was over. This time, though, he'll be playing in an actual competition. Janetschek needed to get clearance from Frontier League commissioner Steve Tahsler for Flutie to join the Rox pitching roster, even for one inning. 'He's not just showing up and signing autographs,' Rivers said. This will also be the first time that Rivers is testing the football skills of his longtime lieutenant, with a charity football toss in front of the crowd. 'It's not going to be embarrassing at all,' Rivers said. 'Doug knows how to throw a football for sure. And Quincy knows how to catch it.'

Chiefs documentary delivers expected satisfying ending for the Eagles faithful
Is it strange to state Eagles fans were more pumped for ESPN's The Kingdom than Chiefs fans were? There is only one thing capable of equaling the satisfying feeling of watching the Philadelphia Eagles destroy the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. That's watching the Eagles destroy the Chiefs again in a documentary. Thank Heaven for NFL Films, and thank you to everyone involved in the making of an ESPN original. Most of you know this. The 'worldwide leader in sports' lent its cameras to follow the two-time defending Super Bowl champions. The goal was to gain unprecedented access to their quest for an unprecedented 'three-peat'. There isn't a Birds fan walking who doesn't know how that ended up. The entire series is available for streaming on ESPN+ and Disney+. If you're like most Birds fans, you'll find the most satisfaction in skipping the first five episodes and diving right into the finale. ESPN's The Kingdom offers the Eagles fan base a wildly satisfying and expected ending to a good documentary In The Pursuit, the sixth and final episode of The Kingdom, we find Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes, and company traveling to New Orleans to face Philadelphia on football's most significant and grandest stage. There isn't a Birds fan in the Delaware Valley or anywhere else on Planet Earth who hasn't seen FOX's presentation of Super Bowl LIX more than once. Still, even with all of that being the case, you have to watch this one anyway. Seeing the annihilation in documentary form is indescribable. ESPN's goal was to capture the Chiefs' pursuit and fulfillment of their destiny. What ESPN had hoped for was an epic commemorating history, but an inspired Eagles team had other plans. Destiny's new darling throttled the champs, the best quarterback of his era, and the man who might be the second most excellent coach of all time. All in all, The Kingdom is a pleasant viewing experience. It doesn't hurt anything that the right team won. It's an excellent watch, but it also leads to two questions. Is it strange to state Eagles fans were more excited about this doc than the Chiefs were? Is it weird to say the upset made for a better and more intriguing ending? The answer to those questions is 'yes' and 'yes'. With that, Philadelphia begins its push for another run at glory as the defending champs, even if they have no interest in being identified as such.
