Maximilian Günther – DS PENSKE driver

‘Awesome to be racing here in Miami and it’s a spectacular venue to host our home race as a team. It’s certainly a proud moment for me to drive a DS Penske car around the Hard Rock Stadium. The lap is short, with some great racing opportunities and very technical sections. Fine details will decide who ends up at the front. We’re well prepared, arrive with good momentum and all focus is on executing our package to the best. I can’t wait to get in the car.’

Taylor Barnard – DS PENSKE Driver

‘Miami is the team’s home race and that changes the mindset completely. This track demands commitment and precision, and that suits us. We have worked very hard for this weekend and we are coming fully focused. We are here to fight at the front, not to play it safe. With the home crowd behind us, the target is clear: qualify at the front and fight for the win.’
