Miami to join Formula One roster in 2022

Miami will host a Formula One race from next year as part of a 10-year-deal announced by the sport and local organisers.

The grand prix at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, home of the Miami Dolphins NFL team, will be a second Formula One race for the United States in addition to the one in Austin, Texas.

Formula One said in a statement the date of the Miami race had yet to be decided.

Miami will be the 11th location Formula One has raced at in the United States since the world championship started in 1950.

"The US is a key growth market for us and we are greatly encouraged by our growing reach in the US which will be further supported by this exciting second race," said Formula One chief executive Stefano Domenicali.

The Hard Rock Stadium belongs to real estate mogul and Dolphins owner Stephen Ross, who will fund construction of the track and cover race costs.

The circuit will be 5.41km with 19 corners and three straights and an estimated top speed of 320km/h.
