The Formula 1 race weekend at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez immediately saw strong early pace from Ferrari during the opening practice sessions. Although the Maranello-built machine propelled Charles Leclerc to the top of the timesheets in both the first and second practices, the mood inside the red garage remained strictly grounded in focus and hard work.
Reacting to the strong initial speed, Ferrari Team Principal Fred Vasseur adopted a remarkably cautious stance rather than getting caught up in premature optimism. He explicitly stated that the objective is not about how confident the team feels, but rather keeping their heads down and extracting the absolute maximum performance from the car.
The extreme environmental conditions at the high-altitude Mexican venue present a persistent technical puzzle that affects every team on the grid. Vasseur noted that the altitude is a known challenge for everyone involved, meaning extensive overnight engineering work remains vital to prepare properly for the upcoming qualifying session.
Beyond the atmospheric hurdles, the French engineer did not shy away from voicing strict safety concerns regarding the state of the asphalt. He pointed out that the track features excessive bumps, particularly right before the first corner, describing the condition as nearly dangerous and demanding urgent overnight adjustments.
Meanwhile, the Maranello squad also faced questions regarding a technical setback encountered by Lewis Hamilton during the second practice. Vasseur noted that he needed to sit down with the engineering crew to analyze the situation thoroughly before providing any definitive comments.
