Formula 1 qualifying is set to get underway at the 2024 Mexican Grand Prix today (Saturday, October 26), as the battle for both championships threatens to go down to the wire.
Lando Norris lost ground to Max Verstappen in the drivers' championship last time out, and will be hoping to claim pole position in order to try and start eating into the Dutchman's lead.
Norris was slammed with a five-second penalty at the US GP for an illegal overtake, which saw him demoted from third to fourth, and allowed Verstappen to extend his lead to 57 points in the drivers' standings.
However, it was Ferrari who demonstrated the strongest package at COTA, with Charles Leclerc achieving his third race victory of the season.
Will the Scuderia maintain their advantage heading into qualifying in Mexico? Or can McLaren claim their spot ahead of Red Bull at the top of the grid?
