Ever since I changed my profile picture and name, Twitter's algorithm has decided to destroy this account and stop showing my posts to anyone.

🗓️Today marks the 8th anniversary of one of the races with the most absurd time gaps in recent memory

🏆It is also the 8th anniversary of Lewis Hamilton's 5th Formula 1 world championship

🇲🇽 Sergio Pérez will use a special helmet this weekend

He will be celebrating both his home race and his 300th Formula 1 GP

Charles Leclerc has earned a total of 6 podiums this season

What's most interesting is that he's earned more than half of them (4) while starting from P4, outside the podium positions. He is also the driver who has secured the most podiums after starting from P4 this season

Of the 23 drivers who have competed in this season, only one has never made the top 10 in the power rankings compiled by Formula 1 after each race

That driver is Lance Stroll

Today marks exactly 2 years since Spain's last Formula 1 victory, achieved by Carlos Sainz precisely at the 2024 Mexican GP

As of today, it seems there is still a long way to go before we see a Spaniard win again

There is only one driver, other than those from Mercedes, Ferrari, McLaren or Red Bull, who has made it to Q3 five or more times in a row this season

That driver is Arvid Lindblad, with a total of 7 consecutive appearances

Throwback to George Russell in Mexico 2025, when he disguised himself with a silver-and-green lucha libre mask and slipped into the crowd without anyone noticing

Liam Lawson has managed to score points in 13 of this season's 18 GPs, whereas prior to 2026, he had only scored points in 10 out of 35 GPs

Despite this significant improvement, he still does not have a guaranteed seat for next year

How it all began vs. How it's going

KIMI ANTONELLI GETS A 10 IN THE AUSTIN POWER RANKINGS

Verstappen and Leclerc get the same note, 8.8

On this day in 2013, the 3rd and final edition of the Formula 1 Indian GP took place:

🇩🇪 Sebastian Vettel secured all 3 pole positions
🇩🇪 Sebastian Vettel secured all 3 victories
🇩🇪 Sebastian Vettel won his 4th and last title in India

KIMI ANTONELLI WILL NOT USE #1 IN 2027

“I first need to do my job in Mexico, but I think I’ll continue racing with number 12”

Of the 18 races we've had so far this year, there has been only 1 result that would prevent Kimi Antonelli from winning the title this weekend if it were to happen again

It was in Barcelona, when Lewis Hamilton won his first race with Ferrari and Antonelli retired in the final laps of the race

What began in Mexico, will end in Mexico

Frederik Vesti will replace George Russell in Mexico FP1

In the last 15 GPs in Mexico, only 2 drivers have secured multiple pole positions

🇲🇨 Charles Leclerc - 2 (2019, 2023)
🇧🇷 Ayrton Senna - 2 (1988, 1989)

🚨MOST WINS IN MEXICO

MAX VERSTAPPEN - 5
McLaren - 4
Mercedes - 3
Williams - 3
Ferrari - 3
Lotus - 3
Cooper - 1
Brabham - 1
Honda - 1
Benetton - 1

After the race in Austin, Lestappen has already reached 30 shared podiums in Formula 1, and they are just one more away from becoming the joint 10th pair with the most shared podiums in all of history

Last year, the two of them made it to the podium in Mexico, the very same being held this weekend
