Worth Watching Score

5.6

Lando Norris delivered a composed win in Mexico City ahead of Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen, but the race rarely sparked into life. Overtaking was limited despite the long straight, and strategy didn’t shake the order much, with four DNFs providing most of the drama and shuffling the midfield. There were brief flashes of pressure on the podium runners and some gritty mid-pack scraps, yet few decisive fights at the front. Worth a watch for Norris’s clean execution and the attrition subplot; otherwise, skim the start, the pit cycles, and the late retirements.
