  "account": "Ryō Hirakawa made his Formula 1 debut at the Mexico City Grand Prix this past weekend, scoring his first point in the sport. The Haas reserve driver participated in practice sessions and made his first start in FP3, despite being eliminated in qualifying. Starting from the 13th position, Hirakawa crossed the finish line in 10th place, thanks to post-race penalties handed to Oscar Piastri, Pierre Gasly, and Franco Colapinto. These penalties dropped the affected drivers down the classification, promoting Hirakawa to a points-scoring finish in his F1 debut. As the race heads to Brazil for the upcoming São Paulo Grand Prix, fans will be wondering if Hirakawa will return to the Haas team for the next race.",
