The British McLaren driver took his second victory of the year after a perfect tire strategy and a devastating pace in the last ten laps. Charles Leclerc completed the podium in third place.
"I knew I had an opportunity and I couldn't pass it up. To win in the United States is unbelievable," said Norris, cheered by more than 80,000 fans at Hard Rock Stadium.
The race was marked by multiple incidents, including a collision between Sergio Perez and George Russell on lap 28, which forced the safety car to come out.
With this result, Norris takes second place in the drivers' championship, just 12 points behind Verstappen. The next round will be the Canadian GP on June 30.
