Sunday’s F1 Mexican Grand Prix will provide an opportunity for McLaren’s Lando Norris to challenge team-mate Oscar Piastri for the top spot in the drivers’ standings. Currently, Norris trails Piastri by just 14 points, with Max Verstappen closing in behind them. Verstappen acknowledged the need for retirements ahead of him to secure a good result, but if he stays ahead of Piastri, he could gain crucial points for his championship pursuit. Despite potential chaos at Turn 1, will Norris maintain his lead in Mexico City?
The final classification of the 2025 Mexican Grand Prix will be posted after the 71-lap race, showing the order of drivers and their gaps. The removal of fastest lap points in 2025 alters the scoring system, eliminating the extra point awarded for the fastest lap. Previously, this rule led to strategic pit stops for new tyres to claim the extra point, as seen in Daniel Ricciardo’s last race in 2024. Stay tuned for the official results after the race and updates on the evolving F1 headlines.
