As we enter the final three races of the 2022 Formula 1 season, Mick previews this weekend's Mexico City Grand Prix.

Round 20 of the 2022 FIA Formula 1 World Championship takes the paddock to the heady heights of Mexico City. It’s another country steeped in motorsport history, what are your memories from the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez?

“I think my first time ever going to Mexico City was with Race Of Champions in 2019, pairing up for the first time with Sebastian. It was obviously a great experience and then going there as a Formula 1 driver last year was also special. I’d never driven the track before, and I had to get used to the altitude at first which was a bit different to all other race weekends we go to. I have great memories so I’m definitely looking forward to this year.”

The track is 2km above sea level, which puts obvious stresses on cars. Racing in these conditions in news cars, and heading towards the latter stage of the season, are you expecting a competitive race with reliability playing a key role in the outcome? 

“I think it’s always hard to predict any changes in aerodynamics and engine power. We had no reliability issues last year on our side so hopefully we’ll be good and we’ll be able to score some points.” 

 

A highlight of racing at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodriguez is the Foro Sol grandstand – where cars make their way through the stadium. What is it like to drive through that unique corner in Formula 1 and can you hear the cheers from inside the cockpit?

“Maybe not for us, but definitely for Checo! He has huge support there and it’s great to see people love motorsport so much in Mexico. I’ve had some crazy experiences, so it’s definitely a place I’m looking forward to going back to and hopefully get the cheers from the fans.”
