Lewis Hamilton claimed his first pole position for Ferrari in Mexico City, edging Mercedes’ George Russell by 0.009 seconds for his first pole in a regular Grand Prix since 2023. It was Hamilton’s 105th career pole and made him the oldest Grand Prix pole-sitter since 1982; Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc qualified third. Championship leader Kimi Antonelli was fifth-fastest but will start fourth after Max Verstappen’s one-place penalty, and can secure the title by finishing ninth or better on Sunday. Russell or Hamilton must win, with Antonelli finishing outside the top nine, to keep the championship contest alive.
