The Formula 1 roadshow has well and truly landed in Miami.

Making its debut on the calendar for the 2022 season, this weekend’s grand prix is set in the Hard Rock Stadium complex – home to the NFL’s Miami Dolphins – and looks set to be the biggest and boldest event the sport has ever seen.

On Wednesday, an opening ceremony took place on the enormous podium, featuring drivers and team principals, as American fans were treated to a Super Bowl-style extravaganza.

For all the glitz, glamour and showmanship the organisers have laid on so far, it’s the addition of an artificial marina, complete with fake water, around a section of the 5.412km circuit that has fans talking.

Will racing in the sunshine state of Florida live up to the colossal hype? BBC Sport takes a look at what is in store.

In a media conference before the 2017 Australian Grand Prix, when asked where they would like to see Formula 1 go next, Lewis Hamilton had only one location in mind. «Miami,» said the then three-time world champion. «That would be a pretty good one.»

Fast forward five years, and Hamilton’s wish has been granted.

The popularity of the Netflix series Drive to Survive has opened up a new generation of fans to the sport, and F1’s owners have been keen to tap into the vast potential of the US market. A night race against the backdrop of the Las Vegas strip will be joining Miami, plus the grand prix in Austin, Texas, from 2023.

This weekend’s event has not been without its teething problems, however. The Miami International Autodrome went through 36 different layouts before developers settled on a street-circuit feel with 19 corners, three straights and scope for three DRS zones.

Although situated in the Miami Gardens campus of two-time Super Bowl winners the Miami Dolphins, the temporary track acts more like a moat that goes around the stadium, using the franchise’s car park to maximum effect. The circuit also tips its hat to the Mexico City Grand Prix, with an homage to the semi-circular Foro Sol grandstand section that sits inside the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez.
