Carlos Sainz will start from pole position for the Formula 1 Mexico Grand Prix. Here’s how and when you can watch the race.
Sainz dominated Q3, setting two laps that were good enough to take his sixth career pole for Ferrari by 0.225s. Max Verstappen ended up second, recovering from having his initial effort chalked off for exceeding track limits at Turn 2.
The Red Bull driver’s title rival Lando Norris will start third, ahead of the second Ferrari of Charles Leclerc, while Mercedes team-mates George Russell and Lewis Hamilton will share row three.
Kevin Magnussen was seventh in another fine performance for Haas, with Pierre Gasly eighth for Alpine as Williams driver Alex Albon and Nico Hulkenberg (Haas) rounded out the top 10.
Yuki Tsunoda cost both himself and RB team-mate Liam Lawson a chance of a top 10 start with a Q2-ending crash, which also compromised Fernando Alonso. The Aston Martin driver will start 12th on his 400th grand prix weekend.
Meanwhile, FP3 pace setter Oscar Piastri was another to fall foul of track limits and find himself eliminated in Q1, joined by home favourite Sergio Perez, who struggled with braking issues in his Red Bull.
