Jamaica’s Sara Misir Vaz finishes third at E1 Miami Grand Prix
KINGSTON, Jamaica — Jamaican motorsport star Sara Misir Vaz secured a third-place finish at the E1 Miami Grand Prix on Saturday, November 14, bringing her 2026 UIM E1 World Championship campaign to a close on a high note.
Competing alongside Spanish teammate Dani Clos for the Steve Aoki-owned Aoki Racing Team, Misir Vaz claimed a podium finish in the season finale, helping the team finish fourth overall in the championship standings with 117 points.
The Miami Grand Prix, held in Biscayne Bay from November 13 to 14, marked the final two rounds of the electric powerboat racing championship, which featured teams owned by international celebrities including Tom Brady, Will Smith and LeBron James.
Misir Vaz, competing in her second E1 season, began the year with victory at the opening Grand Prix in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, where she also earned the Pilot of the Day award.
The Jamaican previously finished third overall in the 2025 championship while representing Team Blue Rising.
Away from international competition, the four-time Jamaican Motor Sports Athlete of the Year has continued to dominate locally. At the Jamaica Race Drivers Club’s Heroes of Speed event in October, she swept both races in the Modified Production 4 category after securing pole position and recording the fastest lap of the day.
Her latest international podium finish adds to a growing list of achievements as she continues to represent Jamaica on the global motorsport stage.
