5 Key Things to Watch Out For at the 2026 F1 Mexico GP

Formula 1 returns this weekend at the iconic Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez, coming just seven days after Kimi Antonelli romped to a brilliant victory in Austin. That triumph marked the ninth win of the 2026 season for the talented young Italian driver, who dominated from pole position using a well-executed one-stop strategy with his team. He was joined on the podium by the two-stopping duo of Charles Leclerc representing Ferrari and Max Verstappen driving for Red Bull Racing at round 18 of the campaign.

As the season enters its crucial business end with only five rounds remaining, the Mexico Grand Prix could potentially witness the crowning of a new world champion. Holding a massive points advantage over his remaining title contenders, including Lewis Hamilton, the Mercedes prodigy stands on the verge of motorsport history.

Intense battles at the front are also expected to involve top-tier contenders like McLaren, who continue to push hard in the constructors' standings. The unique high-altitude aerodynamic challenges presented by the Mexican venue always test every team's power unit management and cooling systems to the absolute limit.
