TL;DR Summary

The resurfaced track at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami for the F1 Miami Grand Prix has been causing issues for drivers due to its unique surface. While Pirelli found that grip levels on the racing line were not so bad, the lack of grip off-line caused drivers to struggle with controlling their cars. The increase in grip caused its own problem because the improvement was only on the racing line. Water blasting circuits brings benefits in terms of grip because it removes the top layer of bitumen, but Miami shied away from full water blasting because of the problems that occurred last year.
