Piastri leads McLaren in the final training session in Mexico

Posted on: October 27, 2024

McLaren set the pace during the final hour of practice at the Mexico City Grand Prix, with Oscar Piastri narrowly ahead of his championship teammate ahead of qualifying in Mexico.

After swapping his chassis overnight following his heavy crash in FP2, George Russell was the first driver to drive through the pit lane at the start of the session and saw a small number of competitors pass by as he waited for the perfect time for a workout. starts from the pit exit.

After the launch, it took a while for the Brit to join the rest of the grid, despite the importance of FP3 as the only regular practice session for all drivers this weekend, with the track being silent for the first 15 minutes.

Before the entire field descended on the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez, it was the Mercedes duo that set the fastest times on the soft compound, with Max Verstappen just milliseconds behind.

One of the many drivers to postpone an opening appearance in FP3 was Oscar Piastri, with the McLaren driver taking part in the final practice session on the soft compound tyre.

On his first flying lap, the Australian was off the reference pace in the opening sectors, finishing his lap four-tenths behind the leading Ferrari with a time of 1:18.302s.

From fifth place, Piastri dropped down while his teammate rose to P3.

In an attempt to promote himself from P9, the Australian was forced to abandon his run after encountering an unconscious Ferrari at Turns 10 and 11. However, on the timesheets he welcomed the closeness of the red cars after jumping to fourth place .

Resetting in the pit lane, Piastri looked fresh as he powered through the 17 corners and finished the lap with an impressive new benchmark of 1:16.492s, making him the man to beat with 10 minutes to go.

Piastri was the fastest driver, especially in the low-speed corners, and had a 59 millisecond lead over Lando Norris until the checkered flag, confirming the title of fastest driver in the final session.

Liam Lawson also stayed in his garage during the opening stages of FP3, opting to start his 40 minutes of riding on the medium compound tyre.

It was an inauspicious end to his first flying attempt, which saw him spin over the curbs in the stadium area at Turn 14. However, the Kiwi avoided damage and only damaged the laps of those around him as he reset for another lap.

Lawson successfully completed his second run and only managed to post the 17th fastest time, leaving him 1.6 seconds behind.

Significantly behind his teammate and struggling through the first two sectors, the RB driver’s next improvement only boosted him one position, shaving three-tenths off his time with a 1:18.772s.

With ten minutes remaining in FP3, Lawson closed in on his teammate and came within two tenths of Yuki Tsunoda’s lap as he moved into the top ten.

Lawson returned to the pit lane shortly after his promotion and only revived at the end of the hour to complete his final practice start ahead of qualifying in Mexico.

Hot out of the box, the Ferrari duo were immediately on track, with Carlos Sainz leading his teammate at the top of the rankings after their first flying lap attempts.

As the laps progressed, the Prancing Horses remained in the lead, changing order on each trip around the 4.3km circuit.

Four-tenths behind the benchmark, Lando Norris had some moments during the first half of the session. He aborted his first attempt due to traffic and ran away at Turn 7 before settling into P3.

The McLaren driver was quickly passed by Tsunoda, who has become a familiar presence in the top three this weekend.

Tsunoda, one of the few top ten drivers driving on the medium compound, was five tenths behind Sainz when he reached P3, proving why Red Bull has confirmed the Japanese driver will test in the top team’s car in the end-of-season test.

The man Tsunoda dreams of working with in 2025 jumped to the top of the timesheets after a short break, with Verstappen’s time of 1:17.003 being the first to relegate the Ferrari duo since they entered the session.

Norris quickly made a statement after going four-tenths faster than his championship rival, but it was his teammate who was the real competition after the #81 had relegated Norris by six-hundredths.

The Ferrari duo fell to P6 and P7, with Sainz responding by recording the fastest first sector to move into the top three, behind the papaya cars.

Further down the order, the stadium section found many drivers in the latter stages of FP3, with Sergio Perez stuck in P13 at Turn 13 and Nico Hulkenberg jumping the curb at Turn 12.

The home hero’s teammate ended the session with complaints and frustratingly informed the Red Bull pit wall about the lack of front and rear grip, which was visible throughout the lap and in Perez’s performance after the Mexican again got stuck in turn 12.

Rejoining the session from the pit lane, the field set off to complete their final practice starts on the grid, with no one able to match the pace of the McLaren duo.

An Introduction to Formula One (F1)

Formula One, or F1, is the highest class of single-seater auto racing, governed by the Fédération Internationale de l\'Automobile (FIA) and is owned by Liberty Media. The name "Formula One" refers to the set of rules or formula that all cars and drivers must comply with.

The F1 season consists of a series of races, known as Grands Prix, held on purpose-built circuits or public roads around the world. The results of each race are combined to determine two annual championships: one for drivers and one for constructors (teams).

The history of Formula One can be traced back to the pre-war Grand Prix racing, which featured open-wheel cars with supercharged engines. The first World Championship of Drivers was organised by the FIA in 1950, following the end of World War II. The first race was held at Silverstone, England, and was won by Giuseppe Farina, driving an Alfa Romeo. The first constructors\' championship was introduced in 1958 and was won by Vanwall.

Formula One has seen many changes and innovations over the years, both in terms of technology and regulations. Some of the most notable developments include the introduction of rear-engined cars in the late 1950s, the use of aerodynamic wings in the late 1960s, the adoption of turbocharged engines in the late 1970s, the emergence of electronic driver aids in the late 1980s, the switch to V10 and then V8 engines in the 1990s and 2000s, and the introduction of hybrid power units in 2014.

Formula One has also produced some of the greatest drivers and rivalries in the history of motorsport. Some of the most famous names include Juan Manuel Fangio, Jim Clark, Jackie Stewart, Niki Lauda, Ayrton Senna, Alain Prost, Michael Schumacher, Lewis Hamilton, and Sebastian Vettel. Some of the most intense battles for the championship have been between Fangio and Stirling Moss in the 1950s, Lauda and James Hunt in the 1970s, Senna and Prost in the late 1980s, Schumacher and Mika Hakkinen in the late 1990s, and Hamilton and Vettel in the 2010s.

Formula One is widely regarded as the pinnacle of motorsport, attracting millions of fans and viewers worldwide. The sport is also a huge business, involving billions of dollars in revenue and expenditure. The teams compete for prize money, sponsorship deals, and media rights, while the drivers earn millions of dollars in salaries and endorsements. The sport is also influenced by politics, regulations, and controversies, such as doping scandals, espionage cases, safety issues, and environmental concerns.
