The eyes of the world will be on Mexico City this weekend as Formula 1 returns to Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez for the 2024 Mexican Grand Prix.
With just five races left in the current season, the battle for the championship is even tighter, with Ferrari joining the party just eight points behind Red Bull in the constructors' standings following their glorious one-two at COTA.
Verstappen's team-mate, on the other hand, only managed a P7 finish, with Sergio Perez's potential replacement Liam Lawson just two places behind him, despite starting from 19th.
With his career on the line, Perez will be hoping to get off to a better start at his home race this year than he did in 2023, where the disastrous outing saw him crash out at the first corner.
But how will the weather play out for this weekend's F1 action?
Mexican Grand Prix weather forecast
Friday, October 25: FP1 & FP2
Friday at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez looks dry for the first practice session of the weekend, with temperatures expected to be around 20 degrees Celsius at the local time of 12:30.
There is a zero per cent chance of rain for both practice sessions, with FP2 marginally hotter at 22 degrees around 4pm (CST), accompanied by a gentle northern breeze of around 14mph.
Saturday, October 26: FP3 & Qualifying
The final practice session of the weekend will take place under cooler conditions at the earlier start time of 11:30 (CST). Temperatures are expected to reach 18 degrees while wind speeds remain low, and once again there is a zero per cent chance of rain.
Qualifying is also expected to be completely dry, while no high winds are expected and temperatures are set to be around a cool 21 degrees Celsius.
Sunday, October 27: Race
Sunday's race will kick off at 1pm local time (CST), in once again dry and sunny conditions, with temperatures expected to hit 19 degrees Celsius for lights out.
There is a zero per cent chance of rain once again during the race, but there may be some rain around in the morning before Sunday's race, potentially washing away the marbles that have been laid down from the previous two days' running.
