Barring a shock result, Andrea Kimi Antonelli is set to clinch the F1 world drivers’ championship in Mexico this weekend.
It would most likely take a retirement for the runaway points leader plus a victory for either George Russell or Lewis Hamilton for the championship fight to continue to Brazil – a result which has only happened once all year.
Will the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez serve up a late twist or see the widely-anticipated coronation of F1’s youngest champion ever? Here’s how to watch the 2026 Mexican Grand Prix live in the UK:
