"Mexico City is another chance to demonstrate the progress we have made"

CEO and Team Principal of Racing Point, Otmar Szafnauer, believes that the Mexican Grand Prix has been a huge success in previous years and hopes that his team can succeed at the Grand Prix this weekend. 

“Mexico has been a fantastic addition to the calendar and, over the last five years, has become one of the most popular races of the season," Szafnauer said in his race preview.

"The atmosphere inside the circuit is unlike any other and, away from the track, we’re treated to some great hospitality. I personally don’t think you can beat a good Chimichanga!

“As a team, we enjoy great support in Mexico – especially because it’s a home race for Sergio – and the energy of the crowd is something that the whole team feeds off. We expect to be competitive and to be fighting for points on Sunday.

"The car has evolved significantly over the last couple of months and Mexico City is another chance to demonstrate the progress we have made recently.”

Racing Point will hope to impress at Sergio Perez's home Grand Prix and that they can come away with a double points finish and that they can try and catch sixth-placed Toro Rosso in the constructor's championship.
