While the track which surrounds the Hard Rock Stadium - home of the Miami Dolphins - is not a favourite among drivers, fans are treated to the Coachella of F1.
And like the UK festival, the price of refreshments and scran are quite the tough pill to swallow.
F1 photographer, Kym Illman, revealed the remarkable price for goods at the circuit, which is the first of three visits to the United States for the motorsport in 2025.
Taking to his social media page, Illman showed off the crazy price of a number of items including beer, bottled water, pizza and nachos BEFORE tax.

The video starts off with Illman outside of a food stand selling Italian cuisine.
He reveals a pizza will cost fans between $16-$18 (£12-£14) and pasta will cost $25 (£19), reports from other outlets report other pizza stands hiking prices as high as $29 (£22) for a chicken pizza and $22 (£16.50) for a cheese pizza.
If you fancy some fried calamari it would set you back a $23 (£17), while sushi costs between $6-$18 (£4.50-£13.50), tacos cost $18 and nachos cost $19 (£14.30).
Meanwhile, a "budget option" turkey sandwich comes in at $18 while fans are charged $30 (£22) for a steak sandwich, $24 (£18) for a Chicken Royale with cheese or $14 (£10.50) for an Ultimate Game Day hot dog.

Beer prices work out at around $13 (£10) for a Heineken, while a local brand is marginally cheaper at $12 (£9).

A more lavish Strawberry Daiquiri or Frozen Margarita will cost a cool $20 (£15).
Meanwhile, a glass of Bubbly will cost $27 (£20) with a bottle coming out to $130 (£98).
Bottled water is also far from wallet friendly at $6 a pop.
These extraordinary prices are here to stay in F1 after it was announced on Friday that the track's contract had been extended to 2041, making it the longest contracted circuit on the calendar.

This season has seen Miami host a Sprint Race once again, with Lando Norris profiting from a Safety Car in a thrilling wet to dry race which saw three drivers crash out and four others hit with time penalties.
Lewis Hamilton enjoyed a strong race after a brilliant strategy call to change to slick tyres which got him up to P3 before he suffered a disaster in qualifying later on.
Max Verstappen scored pole position for Sunday's race in the session a day after he announced the birth of his baby daughter, Lily, with Kelly Piquet.

Gethin Jones and Helen Skelton's romance heats up as they're spotted ‘all over each other' on spa trip
See what the pair have said about each other in the past spa-ring partners Gethin Jones and Helen Skelton's romance heats up as they're spotted 'all over each other' on spa trip Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) GETHIN Jones and Helen Skelton's relationship has heated up in recent weeks as they continue to grow close off screen. The Morning Live presenters were spotted looking loved up as they headed to a country club and spa on Monday. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Helen Skelton -pictured here leaving work - was seen at a spa with Gethin Jones Credit: Splash 5 The pair have been spending lots of time together away from the studio Credit: Instagram 5 Helen and Gethin have a very close working relationship Credit: BBC Gethin, 47, took Helen, 41, to the venue near his home - surprising onlookers with their flirty antics. An insider said: 'Gethin and Helen were all over each other. They are clearly super comfortable with each other and it wasn't just like two friends hanging out. 'Helen was really laughing and smiling as they spent time together before heading off in the late afternoon.' They both appear on the BBC show on week day mornings, which is based in Manchester. But they have been spending an increasing amount of time together outside of the studio. Helen is based in Cornwall with her children Ernie, nine, Louis, eight, and Elsie, three, who she shares with her ex-husband Richie Myler. It was first reported last month how their relationship had turned more than just platonic. They were pictured close at the Baftas and last year were spotted at a charity ball set up by Rob Burrow's sisters, with a source adding about the ball: "It was very clear that Helen and Gethin were together as a couple at the event. "They were with close friends of Helen's and their connection was undeniable." Helen's husband Richie left her for Stephanie Thirkill in 2022. Watch touching moment Helen Skelton breaks down in tears as she's reunited with her kids during gruelling Comic Relief challenge The Strictly star faced further heartbreak when her rugby player ex went on to have two children with his new love. Gethin, who has previously dated former Towie star Lucy Mecklenburgh and was engaged to mezzo-soprano singer Katherine Jenkins, recently revealed that he's had little success on the dating scene. He said he was struck off the popular dating app Hinge because women didn't believe his profile was really him. Helen and Gethin took part in an epic Comic Relief challenge earlier this year and both gushed about each other after raising £34million for charity. Helen said on social media: "I don't publicly say often enough how much love and respect I have for you my friend because I assume it is well known. "But for the record you're a legend and I am beyond grateful to have you by my side on the rink, the sofa and beyond. "I can gush.. he doesn't read beyond one paragraph on an insta post." Helen and Gethin's reps have been contacted for comment. 5 Helen and Gethin have spoken about how much they get on Credit: Instagram

England player ratings: Walker's future in jeopardy after horror show as Eze and Madueke show flashes of real quality
Scroll down to see the best of the action from the City Ground SLEEP WALK-ING England player ratings: Walker's future in jeopardy after horror show as Eze and Madueke show flashes of real quality Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ENGLAND suffered their first defeat under Thomas Tuchel and their first to an African nation. Despite taking an early lead through Harry Kane, Senegal fought back with goals either side of half-time in their friendly at the City Ground. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 England suffered defeat at home to Senegal Credit: Reuters 4 The Lions of Teranga became the first African nation to beat the Three Lions Credit: Getty 4 Thomas Tuchel remonstrated with the officials after a controversial VAR call Credit: Reuters 4 Crystal Palace star Ismaila Sarr equalised just before the break. Then Habib Diarra beat Dean Henderson from a tight angle. Jude Bellingham thought he had grabbed a late equaliser. However, the close-range finish was ruled out by VAR for a handball in the build-up from Levi Colwill. READ MORE ON FOOTBALL STAR'S NEW LOVE Millie Bright's personal trainer lover revealed as kickboxer dad of SEVEN Then at the other end, a super Senegal counter-attack was rounded off by Cheikh Sabaly deep into injury time. And so, following the drab 1-0 win over Andorra, it was more disappointment for England to wrap up the season with a year and a day to go until the World Cup. Here's how SunSport's Tom Barclay rated the Three Lions players... Dean Henderson: 6 Making just his third cap for England, the Crystal Palace stopper made a number of good stops in the first half. CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS The pick of the bunch was against club-mate Ismaila Sarr's header, but there was nothing Henderson could do about the jet-heeled winger's finish shortly before the break. May feel he could have done better for the second goal as he was beaten from an acute angle. 'They looked bored' - Roy Keane slams England's 'poor attitude' as Thomas Tuchel admits 'I didn't like' Andorra effort Kyle Walker: 3 This was Walker's 96th cap - but his poor performance means a 97th is by no means guaranteed. A good cross for Anthony Gordon aside, Walker was rusty with his touch and looked uncharacteristically slow. The way Sarr raced past him for the leveller made you wonder if time is finally catching up on the 35-year-old stalwart. Trevoh Chalobah: 6 An okay showing on his England bow, coming up against his Chelsea colleague Nicolas Jackson. Though Chalobah was caught out for the leveller, with Jackson managing to get in behind him and hook it back for Sarr to net. Chalobah's appearance meant for just the third time since the start of the 20th century England had two brothers representing them, following on from sibling Nathaniel's solitary cap in 2018. Levi Colwill: 4 Not a great night for the Chelsea man on his fifth cap. Had a slack pass charged down by Jackson early in the second half which served as a warning. Then got nowhere near Habib Diarra as the midfielder raced onto a long ball from Blues old boy Kalidou Koulibaly and then slotted it past Henderson. His handball also saw Jude Bellingham's late equaliser ruled out after a VAR intervention. Myles Lewis-Skelly: 5 Was nowhere to be seen when Koulibaly's ball went into England's left-back area for the second goal. Did not do much else wrong but also did not catch the eye either with not a lot of stepping into midfield. Then again, the guy is only 18 and it is more a mark of the brilliant impact he has made so far that this performance left you feeling underwhelmed. Third cap. Conor Gallagher: 5 Mixed game for the Atletico Madrid man who was one of four of England's starting line-up heading off to the Club World Cup. He was burnt for pace by Iliman Ndiaye early on, chose not to pass to Gordon when the Newcastle man was in the clear and was lucky not to be booked for a lunge on Sarr. But he did tee up Gordon for the shot that led to Kane's opener. Declan Rice: 5 Some lax passing that perhaps was not unexpected in the final game of a long, frustrating season. But let's be honest, whatever Rice had done here, we know he will still be an automatic starter in central midfield come next summer. The question remains, who will join him? Bukayo Saka: 5 His first appearance under Thomas Tuchel, having been injured for the German's first two games and left out for fitness reasons of the third against Andorra on Saturday. It certainly was not his most memorable performance, though he was only just back from a strain. Looked like he was about to level for 2-2 but was denied by a fabulous stop from Edouard Mendy. Eberechi Eze: 7 (STAR MAN) In a team performance bereft of real quality, Eze provided a few flashes of class. He was the one who won the ball in the build-up to Kane's opener. While the Crystal Palace star also plucked the ball out of the air brilliantly on two occasions - and had a gorgeous backheel to tee up Morgan Gibbs-White. Anthony Gordon: 5 Gordon's international career has been a perplexing one, looking like it could explode at times but ultimately failing to launch so far. This was his 12th cap and there were hints of what he can bring with his rapid pace and enthusiastic pressing. But he was not clinical enough in front of goal, missing a sitter midway through the first half, once again leaving fans wondering if he has the genuine quality to shine at this level. Harry Kane: 7 Kane plays, Kane scores. It has been rinse and repeat for a decade. Here it happened again as he tapped in a rebound for his 73rd in 107 caps, an appearance feat which drew him level with Ashley Cole. Did not do a right lot else, mind, although still looked our best passer, which is an issue for Tuchel and his midfield. SUBS Morgan Gibbs-White (for Gordon, 58): 6 Biggest cheer of the day was when the Nottingham Forest star was introduced in front of the City Ground. Had a blast well saved. Curtis Jones (for Gallagher, 58): 5 Fired a shot well over soon after coming on, and lost the ball in the build-up to Senegal's third. Morgan Rogers (for Kane, 58): 6 Played up front when coming on while Ivan Toney was left on the bench. Full of running but the team struggled to pick him out. Noni Madueke (for Saka, 70): 7 It was his corner that led to England's equaliser - until ref Stephanie Frappart ruled it out after looking at her touchline monitor. Jude Bellingham (for Rice, 70): 7 Thought he had levelled after a clever touch and finish but the goal was chalked off for Colwill's handball. Ivan Toney (for Lewis-Skelly, 87): 6 First England appearance since going to Saudi Arabia but he was on so late, he barely had time to make an impact - even if he has a famous history of doing exactly that. MANAGER Thomas Tuchel: 3 HIS first defeat in his fourth game and it was well-deserved. Senegal were much the better team as his side lacked creativity and looked vulnerable at the back. Question marks over his decision to play veterans like Walker - and Jordan Henderson in previous games - remain. While you wondered what the point of selecting Ivan Toney was if he was barely going to play once Kane went off. None of Tuchel's quartet of matches have been that impressive so far - but this was downright dire.
