Lewis Hamilton wins pole for Ferrari at the Mexico City Grand Prix

Lewis Hamilton reclaimed pole position for Ferrari in the Mexico City Grand Prix on Saturday, despite a poor Friday practice session. The British driver overtook Mercedes' George Russell and Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc. This marks the first pole position for Ferrari since Hungary in 2025. Hamilton, who has previously won the world championship twice in Mexico, expressed his delight at securing the position.

On Friday, he experienced a loss of power during practice, which forced him to retire from the session. Kimi Antonelli of Mercedes finished the qualifying session in seventh place, showing that his car's setup was well-suited for the 20-year-old to potentially become the youngest Formula 1 champion in history.
