Race Preview
The Mexican Grand Prix will see the drivers complete a total distance of 305.354 km this weekend, with the field completing a total of 71 laps at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. Max Verstappen and Red Bull has been the dominant force, with both winning the race on five previous occasions.
The pressure was eased on the reigning champion last weekend, as he extended his championship advantage over Lando Norris by winning the Sprint before taking third in a drama-filled Grand Prix.
There was controversy in the closing stages, as Norris overtook Verstappen for third, but was handed a five-second penalty after passing his rival off the track.

However, the race was all about the dominance of Ferrari. Charles Leclerc led home a Ferrari one-two, with Carlos Sainz taking second. It was a notable win in terms of the Constructorsâ Championship, with the Italian team now standing just eight points off Red Bull, and 48 points off McLaren.
The track this weekend should once again suit the lightning quick Ferraris, meaning that a repeat finish is hard to dismiss. Mercedes lost Lewis Hamilton on the second lap in Austin, but George Russell completed a fine recovery drive to finish sixth after starting in the pit lane.
Mexican Grand Prix Picks
The track similarities between Austin and the Mexican Grand Prix mean that we will be siding with a victory for Leclerc this weekend. Verstappen also looks good value to achieve another podium finish.
