In Formula 1, drivers accumulate points throughout the season, and the overall standings reflect their performance. Among the highlights are Fernando Alonso with 62 points, Charles Leclerc with 275 points, Lando Norris with 297 points, and Lewis Hamilton with 177 points, among others.
On the other hand, the participation of Pato O’Ward, a Mexican IndyCar driver and McLaren reserve in Formula 1, stands out. Recently, O’Ward had the opportunity to participate in the practices for the 2024 Mexican Grand Prix, driving Lando Norris' car and receiving support from the Mexican public.
Given the growing following of Pato O’Ward, there are plans to bring more motorsport events to Mexico. According to statements from Alejandro Soberón, president of CIE, they are in talks with IndyCar to organize competitions for the Mexican driver on Aztec soil.
The 2024 Mexican Grand Prix will take place at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, with activities such as free practices, qualifying, and the race. Sergio "Checo" Pérez, who is currently in eighth place in the drivers' championship, is one of the prominent drivers in the competition.
Pato O’Ward, originally from Monterrey, Nuevo León, is a Mexican driver with an outstanding background in motorsport. His participation in the practices for the 2024 Mexican Grand Prix was praised, achieving a good performance behind the wheel of Lando Norris' car.
Looking ahead, there is a possibility that NASCAR will come to Mexico next year. Both O’Ward and the organizers of motorsport events are excited about the prospect of expanding this sport in the country.
