The Formula 1 driver championship fight stormed into the Mexican Grand Prix with points leader Oscar Piastri struggling in qualifying while McLaren teammate Lando Norris took the pole.
Norris won his fifth pole of the season — first one at Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez — while Piastri was a distant seventh on Saturday.
“Happy to be back on pole, it’s been quite a long time so it’s a good feeling,” said Norris, who was last on pole in Belgium six races ago. “I’ve had some good races here in the past, so I just focus on what I can control.”
A big surprise was the performance from Ferrari, with Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton qualifying second and third. It’s Hamilton’s best effort since he joined Ferrari.
