During the initial free practice session at the Mexico Grand Prix, Charles Leclerc set the pace for Ferrari by putting in the fastest lap time. Close behind him on the timesheets was Mercedes young driver Kimi Antonelli, establishing an early competitive battle between the two teams.
The opening session also featured a brief disruption when a dog wandered onto the track, drawing widespread attention. With FP2 slated for later in the evening, teams and drivers prepare to fine-tune their setups ahead of the weekend's major qualifying and race events.
