墨西哥大奖赛五大亮点
安东内利以成熟的表现庆祝首次夺冠，享受着无压力的加冕仪式。
五个关于历史性的墨西哥大奖赛快速总结
基米·安东内利在墨西哥成为F1冠军，法拉利面临另一内部困境
安东内利以成熟的表现庆祝，在领奖台上大放异彩
享受加冕时刻却压力如此之小，真是奢侈。基米·安东内利承认这个周末他非常紧张，因为他的首次世界冠军即将到来，但他只需要保持岛屿上的状态，就可以轻松冲过终点线。
安东内利在墨西哥的排位赛中并没有发挥出最佳水平，但凭借着拉塞尔的慢起步，他从第五位发车开始受益，并开始跟随领跑者。
由于拉塞尔和汉密尔顿都没有赢得比赛，安东内利甚至不需要完成比赛。当他的主要车队对手们纷纷展开激烈竞争时，安东内利驾驶了一场成熟且低调的比赛——唯一的激动时刻出现在他利用红旗期间对查尔斯·勒克莱尔发起冲击，夺得第三名。这一举动确保了他将在墨西哥著名的福罗索尔体育场前庆祝他的首个冠军头衔。
在梅赛德斯没有占据上风的周末，这无疑是书写F1新篇章的值得骄傲的方式。
勒克莱尔与汉密尔顿的碰撞事件让法拉利失去了胜利。
法拉利在墨西哥站理想地处于赢得本赛季第三个胜利的位置。刘易斯·汉密尔顿和查尔斯·勒克莱尔在发车线上分别位列第一和第三，而前排发车的乔治·罗素在发车第二阶段像石头一样坠落。
在第一部分的弯道中，红色赛车车轮与车轮并行，汉密尔顿在3号弯道勉强保持领先，但当勒克莱尔在4号弯道外侧发起进攻时，两人都偏离了赛道，摩纳哥车手切过了弯角。
汉密尔顿失去了动力，被维斯塔潘超越；勒克莱尔被处以5秒罚时——由于减轻了处罚条件， stewards 解释说——但这不足以在维修区抵挡住维斯塔潘。
摩纳哥车手在第二次发车后又失去了两个位置——在瓦尔特里·博塔斯发生事故导致比赛红旗出动后——并且在过程中过度磨损了轮胎。
坦白说，这场比赛原本可能是法拉利的1-2，但最终在终点线前变成了2-4，因为它的车手们无法保持良好的行为。而且汉密尔顿坚持要求对他队友施加更严厉的处罚，这很可能也不是弗雷德·瓦瑟尔想看到的。
维斯塔潘的最新胜利证明红牛回来了
基米·安东内利是个幸运儿，因为红牛本赛季的起步并不顺利——而且维斯塔潘在早期就失去了太多积分，以至于在理论上还可能保持冠军争夺战。因为如果他保持在与对手竞争的距离内，今年意大利人将有更多的担忧。
相反，我们现在看到的情况并不是在锦标赛意义上的回归——但仍然展示了维斯塔潘能够成为一股怎样的力量。一旦红牛给他一辆足够好的车来在前面竞争，他就开始充分利用这一点。
他的墨西哥胜利是他最近四场比赛中的第三次胜利。自从他在赞德福特退役以来，他参加了每一场比赛并站上了领奖台——这就像任何其他暗示一样，表明你不能排除红牛及其荷兰飞人从明年冠军争夺战中的可能性。
里约·伊拉卡瓦完成了他所要求的一切
伊拉卡瓦前往墨西哥参加第一节练习，然后在安静的周末里从哈斯车队的维修区观看其他比赛。然而，周六早上，他被通知他还需要参加第三节练习、排位赛和比赛，因为车队在周五晚上与埃斯特班·奥康发生争执后决定放弃他。
32岁的日本车手在一级方程式赛车中首次亮相，没有人能对他提出更多的要求。是的，他在排位赛中落后队友近九十分之一秒，但他仍然在Q1中超越了三名对手，并在比赛中没有犯任何错误地完成了比赛，甚至不得不处理两次停车起步。
里约·平川，哈斯F1车队，劳拉·穆勒，哈斯F1车队
哈斯车队已经为其2027年的车手阵容做好了准备，有贝尔曼和卡马拉，但平川展示了如果奥康的情况仍然悬而未决，并且车队决定不立即提升卡马拉，而他在为F2冠军而战时，他可以证明自己的价值。然而，首先，平川下周还有另一个重要的任务：与队友一起在蒙扎的#8丰田车上确保WEC冠军。或者他应该去圣保罗参加F1比赛，因为即使他没有参加WEC，他也将被宣布为冠军？
博塔斯有理由对2027年感到“自信”吗？
瓦尔特里·博塔斯坚持认为他对在凯迪拉克车队2027年有一个座位“相当自信”，并表示“一切都需要在美国的大老板那里得到验证。”
然而，他在整个赛季的表现都不如队友塞尔吉奥·佩雷斯，这一点在本周末再次得到了体现。周六，他连续第四次未能获得杆位，落后了七十分之一。总比分是15-9，佩雷斯领先——值得一提的是，这位墨西哥人从未以特别出色的排位赛而闻名。
导致博塔斯撞上护栏的左前悬挂故障显然不是他的错，但在此之前他的周日表现一直很平淡。他在赛道后部挣扎，速度比佩雷斯慢得多，佩雷斯在比赛的开始阶段占据了第13位，并显示出凯迪拉克有更多的速度潜力。
博塔斯肯定对他与车队以及他座位的主要竞争对手科尔顿·赫塔的合同情况有更多的了解，而赫塔在F2或他的FP1比赛中也没有特别突出。不过，如果这位美国人最终获得明年超级驾照，将会很有趣看看会发生什么。

Five quick takeaways from historic Mexico GP
Kimi Antonelli crowned F1 champion in Mexico as Ferrari faces another internal dilemma
Antonelli celebrates in style with mature podium drive
What a luxury to enjoy your coronation with so little pressure. Kimi Antonelli did admit to being extra tense this weekend as his maiden world championship loomed, but all he had to do was keep it on the island to cruise to the finish line.
Antonelli didn't have his finest qualifying session in Mexico, but from fifth on the grid he benefitted from Russell's slow start to get ahead and shadow the leaders.
With neither Russell nor Hamilton winning the race, Antonelli didn't even have to finish the race. And as virtually all of his top team rivals got their elbows out, Antonelli drove a mature and low-key race - the only bit of excitement coming when he made a lunge on Charles Leclerc to grab third after the red flag. That move ensured he would celebrate his maiden title on Mexico's famous podium fronting an electric Foro Sol stadium.
On a weekend Mercedes didn't have the upper hand, it was a worthy way to write a fresh chapter of F1 history.
Leclerc vs Hamilton incident costs Ferrari win
Ferrari was ideally positioned to claim its third victory of the season in Mexico. Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc were first and third on the grid, and front-row starter George Russell dropped like a stone in the second phase of the start.
The red cars went wheel to wheel in the first section of corners, with Hamilton narrowly retaining the lead out of Turn 3, but when Leclerc launched a move around the outside in Turn 4, both of them ended up going off track, with the Monegasque cutting the corner.
Hamilton lost momentum and was passed by Verstappen; Leclerc got a five-second penalty – more lenient than the regular 10 seconds due to mitigating circumstances, the stewards explained – but that wasn’t enough to hold Verstappen off in the pitlane.
The Monegasque went on to lose two more spots at the second start – after the race was red-flagged for Valtteri Bottas’ crash – and flat-spotted his tyres in the process.
Let’s put it plainly: this race could have been a Ferrari 1-2, and under the chequered flag it was a 2-4, because its drivers couldn’t behave. And Hamilton insistently calling for a harsher penalty for his team-mate likely wasn’t quite what Fred Vasseur wanted to see either.
Verstappen's latest win proves Red Bull is back
Kimi Antonelli is a lucky boy that Red Bull's start to the season wasn't great - and Max Verstappen lost too much ground early on to realistically remain in the championship fight. Because had he stayed within striking distance, there would be a lot more for the Italian to worry about this year.
Instead, what we're seeing now isn't a comeback in the championship sense - but it's still a demonstration of what a force Verstappen can be. As soon as Red Bull gave him a car good enough to fight at the front, he started making the most of it.
His Mexican victory is his third in the last four races. He's been on the podium in every single race since his retirement at Zandvoort - and that's as big a hint as any that you can't discount Red Bull and its Flying Dutchman from contention for next year's championship.
Ryo Hirakawa did exactly what was asked of him
Hirakawa travelled to Mexico to take part in FP1 before settling into a quiet weekend watching the rest of the action from the Haas garage. However, on Saturday morning, he was informed that he would also have to drive in FP3, qualifying and the race, following the team's decision to drop Esteban Ocon after a disagreement on Friday night.
At 32, the Japanese driver was making his debut in Formula 1, and there was little more anyone could have asked of him. Yes, he qualified almost nine tenths of a second behind his team-mate, but he still outqualified three rivals in Q1 and went on to complete the race without making a single mistake, even having to deal with two standing starts.
Ryo Hirakawa, Haas F1 Team, Laura Mueller, Haas F1 Team
Haas already has its 2027 driver line-up in place with Bearman and Camara, but Hirakawa showed that he could prove useful if the situation with Ocon remains unresolved and the team decides against promoting Camara just yet while he is fighting for the Formula 2 title. First, though, Hirakawa has another important assignment next weekend: securing the WEC title alongside his team-mates in the #8 Toyota at Monza. Or should he head to Sao Paulo with Formula 1 instead, given that he would be crowned champion anyway, even if he did not race in the WEC?
Is Bottas right to feel "confident" about 2027?
Valtteri Bottas insists he is "pretty confident" he has a seat secured at Cadillac for 2027 and says that "everything needs to be validated with the big bosses in the USA".
However, his performances throughout the season have fallen short of team-mate Sergio Perez's, and that was evident once again this weekend. On Saturday, he was outqualified for the fourth consecutive time, finishing seven tenths adrift. The overall score stands at 15-9 in Perez's favour — and it is worth remembering that the Mexican has never been renowned as a particularly strong qualifier.
The left-front suspension failure that sent Bottas into the barriers was certainly not his fault, but his Sunday had been anonymous until then. He struggled at the back of the field, with considerably less pace than Perez, who held 13th during the opening part of the race and showed that the Cadillac had the pace for more.
Bottas will surely know more about his contractual situation with the team, and his main rival for the seat, Colton Herta, has not particularly stood out in Formula 2 or during his FP1 outings either. Nevertheless, it will be interesting to see what happens if the American finally obtains his superlicence for next year.
