Mexican GP schedule | How late is the F1 Grand Prix for European fans?

29-10-2023 10:30

The Mexican States Grand Prix is next on the F1 schedule, and it's another late start for European fans. For fans in America, the event takes place in the middle of the afternoon. The 2023 Mexican Grand Prix will take place on Sunday, October 29, at 20:00 BST. It will be the 19th race in the 2023 Formula 1 season and uses the traditional weekend format. 

Max Verstappen won the 2023 World Championship in Qatar, and Red Bull Racing won the Constructors' title in Japan. Given those results and the performance of the RB19, Verstappen and Red Bull are favourites to win again in Mexico. There is still plenty to play for, including P2 in the Drivers' Championship, which sees Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso trying to catch Sergio Perez. They will get another chance in Austin, but Perez will be trying to regain his form in front of his home fans.

When will the drivers be in action?

The Mexican Grand Prix weekend will use the traditional weekend format of Formula 1. Two practice sessions will take place on Friday, with a third practice on Saturday. Qualifying for the Grand Prix is on Saturday. The main event takes place on Sunday at 20:00 BST (14:00 local time).
