The Mexico City Grand Prix starts at 1:30am on Monday 2 November in India, which is 2pm on Sunday in Mexico City.
It is a standard weekend with no sprint race. Mexico City is eleven and a half hours behind India, so every session falls late at night or in the early hours here.
Full schedule in India time
- Practice 1: Saturday 31 October, 12:00am (midnight on Friday night)
- Practice 2: Saturday 31 October, 3:30am
- Practice 3: Saturday 31 October, 11:00pm
- Qualifying: Sunday 1 November, 2:30am
- Race: Monday 2 November, 1:30am
In Mexico City itself, practice runs at 12:30pm and 4pm on Friday, final practice at 11:30am and qualifying at 3pm on Saturday, and the race starts at 2pm on Sunday.
What's at stake
Kimi Antonelli arrives with a lead of 123 points over George Russell and 124 over Lewis Hamilton, with five rounds left. Two points on Sunday are enough to make the 20-year-old the youngest world champion in Formula 1 history.
The circuit
The Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, named after the racing brothers Ricardo and Pedro Rodríguez, sits more than 2,000 metres above sea level. The thin air means less downforce and less cooling for the cars, and the lap ends with a slow section through a baseball stadium, where tens of thousands of fans fill the stands.
Race it on Late Brake
Mexico City is not one of Late Brake's circuits, but the next stop is. Interlagos, home of the São Paulo Grand Prix, is one of six real circuits in the free browser game. Set a lap and race your own ghost before the season heads to Brazil.
