New F1 championship standings after the Mexico Grand Prix
Updated F1 championship results after the Mexico City Grand Prix.
Kimi Antonelli was crowned Formula 1’s youngest-ever world champion after finishing third in the Mexico City Grand Prix.
Third place at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez proved enough for the 20-year-old Italian to wrap up the 2026 title - and his first drivers’ crown - with four races to spare.
Max Verstappen’s third victory of the season in Mexico has seen him jump up to second place in the world championship, two points ahead of Lewis Hamilton.
After finishing sixth, George Russell has slipped to fourth place in the standings, ahead of Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc.
In the constructors’ championship, Mercedes has moved ever closer to clinching the 2026 world title to complete a double title-winning campaign.
Ferrari remains a strong P2 ahead of Red Bull, with the Milton Keynes squad pulling nine points clear of reigning world champions McLaren.
