Formula 1 teams and drivers can once again expect good conditions. In Austin, sunshine often hit the track, and there was no rainfall. The same is forecast for the race in Mexico, though it will perhaps be a little bit cooler. On Saturday, the chance of rain has subsided for Sunday, but there is still a faint possibility that rain might fall.

Max Verstappen increased his lead in the Drivers' World Championship at the United States Grand Prix weekend, meaning Lando Norris must maximise everything from the remaining five events. That begins with the event in Mexico. It's Sergio Perez's home race, and he also needs to get the best out of it as Red Bull's position in the Constructors' Championship comes under threat from Ferrari.
