One of the best attended races of the year is next, as we head back to North America for the reborn Mexican Grand Prix. The Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez is situated over 2000m above sea level, making it a unique race with low air density affecting downforce levels massively. Think Monza levels of downforce from Monaco wings. Lewis Hamilton can claim his 6th Drivers World Championship this race if he can beat Valtteri Bottas by a few places, so can he score his 3rd championship in a row at this track? The Stadium section makes this one of the best podiums of the year, so can Hamilton celebrate the championship on the podium for only the third time in his career? Ferrari have been blindingly fast since the summer break, and this has been a Red Bull track for the last two years, so Mercedes aren't coming in as favourites. Rain is a threat for the weekend, so anything could happen. Roll on the Mexican Grand Prix.
