After a dominant weekend in Austin, where Ferrari managed to score the first 1-2 since Australia, the Scuderia arrived in Mexico with high hopes, conscious that the slow and twisty layout of the Mexican circuit should have perfectly suited the SF-24. The great balance of the car, matched with a spectacular drive from Carlos Sainz allowed Ferrari to dominate both in qualifying and in the race, rekindling the hopes for the Constructors' title.
