Race winners and polesitters

[edit]

Pedro Rodríguez and Sergio Pérez are the only Mexican drivers to have won an F1 race, with two wins for Rodríguez and six wins for Pérez.[1]

Pérez is the only Mexican F1 driver to achieve a pole position. He took his first pole position at the 2022 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, in his 219th Grand Prix meeting (a record for the most Grands Prix before a pole). He took his second pole position at the same track, one year later, at the 2023 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. His last, to date, and most recent pole position was at the 2023 Miami Grand Prix.

Former drivers

[edit]

Brothers Pedro and Ricardo Rodríguez raced in the 1960s. Héctor Rebaque raced in the 1970s. Moisés Solana attended races in the United States and Mexico throughout the 1960s.[1] Esteban Gutiérrez drove for Sauber in 2013 and 2014 and after a one-year gap in which he was a Ferrari test driver, came back to drive for Haas F1 Team in 2016.

Sergio Pérez is the most recent Mexican driver, beginning his career in 2011 with Sauber before moving to McLaren in 2013 and then Force India in 2014. Pérez continued to race with Force India, including after the team became Racing Point. He was contracted to continue racing until 2022 at the Racing Point, but was pushed out of the team at the end of 2020 by the incoming Sebastian Vettel.[2][3] He moved to Red Bull for 2021, and remained there until his departure in 2024.[4][5]
