Today's F1 Mexican GP qualifying start time
Today, the qualifying session for the Formula 1 Grand Prix of Mexico will take place. Last year, Ferrari secured the front row after a stellar qualifying session, and given their impressive pace in Austin last weekend, it's certainly possible they could do it again this year. Additionally, Lando Norris and Max Verstappen will be vying for a good starting position, which will be crucial in the title race.
However, starting from the second row could offer an advantage due to the slipstream on the long straight. In the past, we've often seen a driver from the second row take the lead in the first lap thanks to the slipstream at the start. Could this influence the teams' strategies during qualifying?
The qualifying for the F1 Mexican GP starts today, Saturday, October 26th, at 22:00 BST. Don’t miss any of the action and make sure to turn on your TV in time! Who will take pole position this year?
