Stopwatch
Perez got between the two Mercedes, but Bottas has raised the bar with a 1m20.459s.
Stopwatch
Bottas has zipped to the top of the charts with a 1m21.327s, with Hamilton 0.2s behind him.
The circuit is incredibly dusty, as the track hasn't been used in quite some time. Hopefully, the cars will de-dust it - and if not, get the lemon Pledge out.
Stopwatch
Raikkonen kicks us off with a 1m30.059s, which isn't very quick - Norris has already posted a 1m22.718s.
Green flag
FP1 is now underway, with a healthy few cars immediately kicking off the session to get a sighter of the track. Raikkonen was first on the road.
Before the circuit's hiatus after 1992, the final corner - the Peraltada, was a full 180-degree banked corner - but nowadays we have the stadium section, which gives the fans a nice vantage point.
F1's back at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez, named after '60s and '70s F1 racers Pedro and Ricardo Rodriguez.
Given the, uh, few things that have happened in the world over the past couple of years, F1's back in Mexico for the first time since 2019.
