The 2021 Mexico City Grand Prix will be the 18th race of the 2021 Formula 1 World Championship, and the event comes with all the passion of the Mexican fans and after a two-year wait due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the event will be huge and is a highly anticipated round of the F1 calendar.
Max Verstappen and Red Bull entered the weekend as favorites due to past performances during this year and in past years in the Mexican track, the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez. After Friday’s practice sessions, it is obvious that Verstappen and Red Bull keep their favorites tag into Saturday’s qualifying session and Sunday’s race.

The Dutchman is leading the Formula 1 World Drivers’ Championship ahead of Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton by 12 points (287.5-275.5), and the Englishman will certainly try to combat Red Bull’s driver on Sunday’s race to keep the title battle alive.
The race will be celebrated on November 7th.
