Lewis Hamilton spoke to reporters in advance of the Miami Grand Prix

NEED TO KNOW

• The Ferrari driver said he was "fired up" for the race

• Hamilton has made recent headlines for his relationship with Kim Kardashian

Lewis Hamilton is ready to race!

The Formula 1 star, 41, says he’s looking forward to this weekend at the Miami Grand Prix after previous races were canceled this month.

“Everyone's had a chance to go over what happened in the first three races,” the Ferrari drivertold reporterson Thursday, April 30. "Everyone's had more of an intense time to work on refining the car. Just feel fired up for the second stab at it."

The F1 schedule was put on pause in April, with the cancellations of the Bahrain Grand Prix (April 12) and the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix (April 19) due to ongoing security concerns in the Middle East.

In late March, Kimi Antonelli of Mercedes won the Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka, a monumental achievement for the 19-year-old Italian driver, who became the youngest driver to lead the Formula One World Championship.

As far as Hamilton is concerned, the Miami Grand Prix — which consists of 57 laps around the 3.36-mile Miami International Autodrome track at upwards of 200 to 205 mph — offers a challenge, particularly after last season in which he failed to make a podium for thefirst time in his career.

Of course off the course, the star has grabbed headlines for his relationship withKim Kardashian.

The reality star, 45, and the race car driver went Instagram official on Monday, April 6 in an Instagram Reel.

"HERE WE GO AGAIN 🇯🇵 TOKYO DRIFT VOL. III," Hamilton wrote in the caption of the Reel, which was set to the song "Victory Lap" by Skepta, PlaqueboyMax and Fred Again.Rumors of their romance picked up in March when Hamilton left a flirty comment on Kardashian's Instagram post. On March 16, the SKIMS founder shared snaps from an Oscar party including several clips and photos of herself getting ready. In response to the sultry snaps, Hamilton had a simple comment: “😍.”
