Like previous years there will be a special moment for the winner of the Mexican Grand Prix. Not only the driver, but also the car itself will be on top of the podium.
Special podium in Mexico
The podium in Mexico is always special, especially as it is the only podium on the calendar that is not on the start-finish straight. Instead, the podium at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez is at the large Foro Sol stadium at the end of the lap.
This year, not only will there be three drivers on the podium in Mexico, but the race winning car will also be on the podium. Mexico has seen a car on the podium before as in 2019, winner Lewis Hamilton was joined by his Mercedes.
Remember the car being raised up onto the podium with Hamilton standing on it two years ago? It's happening again! #F1 #MexicoGP pic.twitter.com/U34SE5kozn
