The battle for grid dominance intensified as Lando Norris snatched the fastest time in the final 90 seconds of the third practice session at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. The reigning world champion laid down a benchmark of 1m17.600s, edging out Kimi Antonelli by a microscopic margin of just 0.001s in a thrilling end to the final practice run ahead of qualifying.
Ferrari maintained their competitive edge through Charles Leclerc, who secured third place to ensure three different constructors locked out the top three positions. Meanwhile, Oscar Piastri found strong late pace to finish fourth for McLaren, with the top four drivers separated by less than two tenths of a second, setting the stage for a fiercely contested qualifying session.
Track action was heavily disrupted early on due to slippery track conditions and reliability gremlins. Audi rookie Gabriel Bortoleto suffered an early power unit failure that forced him to park with smoke billowing from his car. Veteran Fernando Alonso also hit trouble, spinning his Aston Martin under braking at Turn 1 following an engine telemetry issue.
Red Bull endured a complex session as Max Verstappen struggled with handling balance and braking stability. The Dutchman ran wide at Turn 4 and could only manage fifth fastest, finishing just ahead of Lewis Hamilton. Hamilton bounced back from his earlier power unit woes to claim sixth, followed by George Russell and Isack Hadjar in the top eight.
Racing Bulls rounded out the top ten with Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad locked in a tight intra-team battle separated by just 0.024s. With margins razor-thin across the entire grid, teams are bracing for a dramatic qualifying showdown under the Mexican sun.
