Formula 1 is back in Mexico City this weekend. The race has a stranger history than most. Here are six facts that sound invented.
1. Honda's first win came in Mexico
Richie Ginther led every lap of the 1965 Mexican Grand Prix to give Honda its first win in the World Championship.
It was also the first win for Goodyear tyres, the only Grand Prix win of Ginther's career and the last race of the 1.5-litre engine rules.
2. A dog ended Jackie Stewart's race
About 200,000 fans came to the 1970 race to see Mexico's Pedro Rodríguez. Many sat at the edge of the track, and the start was pushed back from 2:30pm to 4pm.
During the race, a dog ran onto the circuit. Jackie Stewart hit it, damaging his suspension, and had to retire. Jacky Ickx won for Ferrari.
3. The race then vanished for 15 years
The Mexican Grand Prix was dropped from the calendar after 1970. It did not return until 1986.
It disappeared again after 1992 and stayed away for 22 seasons, until 2015.
4. Benetton won by not changing tyres
Gerhard Berger won the 1986 Mexican Grand Prix for Benetton, the first win for both driver and team.
Benetton used Pirelli tyres, which lasted longer than the Goodyears on many rival cars. Berger did not need to stop for fresh tyres and beat Alain Prost by 25.438 seconds.
5. The lap goes through a baseball stadium
After the 1992 race, a baseball stadium was built on the inside of the Peraltada, the circuit's fast, slightly banked final corner.
When F1 returned in 2015, the track was changed to run through the stadium in a slow left-right section, before rejoining the Peraltada halfway round.
6. The thin air lets teams run more wing
The circuit sits about 2,240 metres above sea level. The thin air means less drag, so teams can use high-downforce settings without losing as much speed on the straights.
The circuit is named after the Rodríguez brothers, Ricardo and Pedro, two of Mexico's best-known racing drivers.
