Formula 1 rolls into Mexico City for the first time since 2019, and so much has changed for Mexican fans. Since the last race, Sergio Perez has become only the second Mexican to win an F1 race (the first in 50 years, no less) and now races for title contenders Red Bull, which will certainly bring a huge crowd to the Mexican weekend.
However, fans attending the Mexico City Grand Prix must have the F1 Fast Pass. This will prove that you are either fully vaccinated, or recently tested negative with a PCR or antigen test.
One of the key characteristics this circuit is the long pit straight. The grid is at one end of the 1.2km straight, meaning the slipstream effect is monumental. This is especially true at the start of the race, when it doesn’t always pay to be on pole. Those behind you can slot in close to the rear as the cars in front cut through the air, increasing your top speed.
Join us later in the afternoon for the latest updates and results from the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, as the qualifying session for the 2021 Mexico City Grand Prix is about to get underway, with Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc at the wheel of the SF21 ready to challenge for the best possible place on the grid ahead of tomorrow’s race in Mexico City.
