Kimi Antonelli became Formula 1's youngest-ever World Champion at just under 20 at the Mexico City GP. Ferrari again squandered a strong race position, handing victory to Red Bull, while the event featured multiple dramas including a last-minute Haas driver swap, twin Aston Martin retirements, and Cadillac mechanical failures.
Background
The Mexico City Grand Prix at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez is known for its high-altitude challenges at 7,350 feet, which significantly affect aerodynamics and engine performance. This season has seen Ferrari repeatedly struggle with race strategy and team orders despite strong car performance.
