Lewis Hamilton has backed down in his dispute with Formula One's governing body over jewellery and will race in the Miami Grand Prix.

Purists may shudder but F1 has grand ambitions in the US and Miami it seems is very much setting a benchmark for how the sport wants to go about breaking America. The row was the last thing the sport wanted for its showcase in Miami. F1’s owner, Liberty Media, had made no secret of its desire to host races in “destination” cities, indeed to make every weekend have the sense of occasion of a Super Bowl. This weekend is surely the culmination of those ambitions. It feels like a real track, which is some achievement given it is largely built on the Dolphins’ parking lots. I want to be an ally and I don’t want to fight over this. He has been granted a two-race medical exemption by the FIA for his nose stud which cannot easily be removed. Wittich is understood to be strongly backed in the move by the new FIA president, Mohammed ben Sulayem.

Mercedes is introducing a low-drag rear wing specification as part of its Formula 1 updates for the Miami Grand Prix.

“The new beam wing is paired with the new rear wing configuration, and also generates reduced downforce and lower drag as part of the lower drag aero package for Miami.” In explaining the changes, the team has said: “This rear wing configuration provides reduced downforce and reduced drag based on circuit simulations, this is likely to be preferred over our higher downforce option which has been used at the first four races of the season. While engine performance has played a part in that, the team is also aware that the high downforce specification wing package it elected to have at the start of the campaign has a high drag consequence.

He recently explained that he is reluctant to comply in order to remain authentic to his true self before suggesting that it would be difficult to physically remove the accessories from his ears even if he wanted to. Lewis Hamilton has suggested that he could decide to skip this weekend's Miami Grand Prix if he is instructed to remove his jewellery in order to take part in Sunday's race. Hamilton appeared to be making a point over his stance on the matter when he arrived at Friday's press conference sporting three watches, eight rings and four necklaces.

The Mercedes driver said he feels like the ban is “almost like a step backwards.”

I’ve been in the sport for 16 years and I’ve been wearing jewelry for 16 years. I don’t feel comfortable not having that in the car. In the car, I only ever have my earrings on and my nose ring, of which I can’t even remove. It’s never been a safety issue in the past. According to ESPN, Wittich’s clarification said: “The wearing of jewellery during the competition can hinder both medical interventions as well as subsequent diagnosis and treatment should it be required following an accident. The Mercedes driver showed up to the press conference sporting three watches, eight rings, four necklaces and two earrings.

“There is very high grip on the racing line and very low grip off it, which will make it difficult to overtake. I think they’ve done a good job in terms of chances of overtaking, we’re going to see good racing here with the long straights, as they start with a slow speed corner, which means you can follow close, so that’s good.” “Otherwise the track’s quite nice to drive – except for the chicane. It’s restricting, you can’t do many differences compared to other people, so it limits you a little bit.” It’s sometimes wet on that side and sometimes off-line, it feels very gravelly so racing will be hard.” That’s why you’ve seen a lot of people ending up in the barriers.
