F1 is back in Mexico for the Mexican Grand Prix and it could be the race that gives Lewis Hamilton another title.
The British star needs to outscore his teammate, Valtteri Bottas, by 14 points and he’s already taken one step towards that goal.
Bottas crashed out of qualifying on his last lap and will line up on the grid in sixth place.
That accident also caused some controversy after Max Verstappen failed to slow despite yellow flags being waved.
Having admitted he didn’t lift for his final quick lap the Dutchman was given a three-place penalty meaning he’s lost his top spot on the grid.
That means he starts in fourth with Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc now in pole and Sebastian Vettel in second – Hamilton will start the Mexican GP in third.
Speaking after qualifying Vettel said of the incident: “For me it was clear it was double yellow. I saw Valtteri was in the barrier, people were jumping on the track to help. It was clear you had to lift.”
Hamilton added: “I think third was possible but I am generally happy with today. It was hard to keep up with the others. We knew it would be difficult here. I gave it everything and I think I am in a fighting position (for the race).”
So, if you want to watch all the action here’s how to tune in online.
