Yuki Tsunoda will have to start the Mexican Grand Prix from the back of the grid. AlphaTauri swapped the Japanese driver's engine, going over the allowed limit of four power units in a Formula 1 season.

Tsunoda starts the F1 weekend at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez with a new engine, which, incidentally, he has not yet used. During the first free practice session, he had to give up his seat to Red Bull Racing junior Isack Hadjar, who finished the session with a 17th time.
