The FIA Formula 2 Championship has announced that Miami and Montreal will host Rounds 2 and 3 of its 2026 calendar alongside Formula 1, marking the first time F2 has raced in North America.

While Oscar Piastri took a significant portion of the blame for the crash that ruled him out of his home race, he said a surge of power from his car's new power unit also played a part.

Camara and van Hoepen rounded out the podium, while Herta claimed seventh to earn his first points in the series.

Formula 1's 2026 season opener in Australia is set for tonight, for those of us in the USA. What sort of drama will the race from Melbourne deliver?
