During the Formula 1 Mexican Grand Prix, Charles Leclerc seized the lead ahead of Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton following a dramatic on-track collision between the Ferrari teammates.

As the race unfolded at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, the early stages were heavily shaped by the intra-team contact within the Scuderia. Capitalizing on the chaos, Leclerc navigated to the front of the pack, holding off stiff competition from Red Bull's Verstappen and Mercedes driver Hamilton.

Further up near the sharp end of the grid, Kimi Antonelli maintained a strong competitive pace, running in fourth position and keeping the podium contenders within his sights.
