F1 Mexican Grand Prix: Start time, weekend schedule, how to watch & TV channel

Mexico City's Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez welcomes Formula 1 this weekend for the second race in a triple header of Grands Prix in the Americas.

Last time out in Austin, Kimi Antonelli all but secured the World Drivers' Championship.

The Italian needs just two points -- meaning a ninth-placed finish or better -- in the Mexican capital to become F1's youngest ever world champion.

Alternatively, should Hamilton or Russell fail to win the race, Antonelli will be crowned.

The battle to finish as runner up to the Mercedes man is tight though, Russell, Hamilton, Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc are separated by just nine points, with the latter two arguably the form drivers in that list.

Mercedes could also clinch the Constructors Championship in Mexico, though it would require them to have both cars on the podium and a disastrous race for Ferrari.
