The Mexico City race is located in the Federal District of Mexico City, the capital of Mexico, the first major country in Central America, named after the legendary Rodriguez Brothers, with 17 curves, a single lap length of 4.304 km, and a final schedule of 71 laps.
The first Mexico station was held in 1962 in what was then named Madeleine. Mishucca's circuit was held and officially joined the F1 calendar the following year until 1970, most famously when Honda won the Japanese automaker's first major event in F1 in 1965 with American driver Richie Ginther, and the race became a popular race because of P. Rodriguez, a racing driver from the country and the brother of the Rodriguez brothers.
However, with the accidental death of P Rodriguez in June 1971, the race immediately announced its withdrawal from the F1 calendar, and the track was renamed the Roche Brothers Circuit as a memorial to the young brothers, although the track side later tried to re-organize the F1 race, and continued to appear in the early planning of the calendar in the early 1980s, but the official return was not successful until 1986, during which time the race was held from October to May. Further moved to March in 1992.
After the end of 1992 due to the development of Mexico City's development delay, population problems and safety problems of the track itself, it was suspended again after the end of 1992, and the track was idle for a period of time, until 2002, when there were new cars running on the track, during which time the Roche Brothers Circuit in addition to hosting IndyCar and A1 and other major events, the track side also re-contact with F1, and in May 2012 announced that it would return to the F1 calendar in 2013, but because of problems such as schedule and so on, Mexico did not officially return to the F1 calendar until October 2015.
The second re-opened Mexico station soon showed high popularity due to the participation of the host adept Perez, and became the world champion in 2017 and 2018, laying the foundation that even if the Mexican federal government decided to withdraw its investment after the end of the 2019 competition, the track side could also renew the competition with mass fundraising, but due to the impact of the epidemic, the competition renamed Mexico City station was interrupted for a year, and the track administration building was once requisitioned by the Mexican City government as temporary hospital land. It has become a major anti-epidemic front line in the city.

Race 17 of the season at the Circuit of the Americas: The United States became the first battle of King Mountain between Verstappen and Hamilton, and after 56 laps of psychological warfare and mental battles, Verstappen, who won pole position, narrowly won 1.333 seconds to win the season's eighth victory.
With Hamilton taking the fastest lap, the lead Verstappen's lead stretched to just 12 points, with Perez on the podium overtaking Norris to fourth.
In terms of team points, the Red Bull Team, which successfully squeezed out the points of the Meben Team, was finally able to close to the 22-point difference, and the third-place advantage of the McLaren Team, which has recently declined, was once again eroded by the Ferrari Team to only 3.5 points, and in the last seat battle of the A-segment class, the Alpine Team handed over the white roll, but the Little Red Bull Team only relied on Yuki Kakuda to score 2 points, so that there is still a 10-point difference between the two teams that has a certain difficulty in chasing points for the midstream team.

In this week's contest, the most important focus is still the battle of Verstappen and Hamilton's King's Mountain.
However, judging from the results of the past years, Red Bull Racing has an advantage in this track with less air resistance in the plateau, but the Maypen Team, which is obviously reluctant to raise the white flag early and surrender, has already shown through the media one of their title-winning aces, a "variable bottom plate" that can increase the straight-line advantage, and the track's Turn 1-3 is an accident hotspot, and it is worth paying attention to whether the two drivers who are expected to fight at the front will be like the two major competitions in the United Kingdom and Italy.
The tournament was also the home match for Verstappen's deputy, Perez. Under the more powerful Red Bull car, Perez is bound to want to stand on the podium in front of the full landlord fans, and if Perez can deliver the performance of the last two major races, it will be a big help for the Red Bull Team that still has a chance to grab the double championship.
The annual third-place battle between McLaren and Ferrari's two traditional teams is also intensifying. Although McLaren won a big victory in Italy and almost relied on Norris in Russia to make another city, the McLaden team may have suffered from the reliability of the Maypon power unit in the subsequent competition, which led to a decline in competitiveness, coupled with the Reds' decision to invest in the 2022 power unit early and successfully minimized the loss of strategic penalties, leaving the two sides with only a single-digit 3.5 point gap before the game.
