Right, that’s all from me. Giles Richards’ report from Mexico City will be along shortly. Tomorrow, Beau Dure will be with you for Antonelli’s (surely inevitable) coronation.

And now Hamilton. “Wow. That feels great … So happy. Oh man, I’m lost for words. It’s been a really, really tough, challenging weekend … The engine issue we had yesterday … But it’s so close between us all … Wow. To have a pole here.” He is told he is the oldest driver to have a pole since Mario Andretti in 1982. “Where there’s a will, there’s a way. It’s all in the mind, honestly, for all of us … I love what I do … I dream about it. I have this amazing support around the world, these guys keeps me going, I hope they are happy today, and I hope I can deliver for them tomorrow.”
