Full live text commentary on race day for the 2025 F1 Mexico City Grand Prix at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodríguez – Round 20 of the 2025 F1 World Championship
In this afternoon’s race, Lando Norris’ main competition is expected to come from Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton of Ferrari. Although Max Verstappen is usually a strong contender, he had a less impressive qualifying session and will start from fifth on the grid. Red Bull’s focus on race day set-up may give them an advantage over single-lap speed. With neither Leclerc nor Hamilton contending for the championship, they can focus on challenging Norris in the race, especially in the sprint into Turn 1. Ferrari’s strategic flexibility also adds to their competitive edge in this scenario.
