Verstappen is pretty much unstoppable this year and if the race follows the signs, he has another win all wrapped up in Mexico already. The circuit is a perfect match for Red Bull’s car and engine and the Dutch driver has won four of the last five races there.
However, it is not all about Verstappen. There are 19 other drivers on the grid all racing hard to make their mark – whether that is a best finish of the year, a first podium, or just a few points to change their overall season-ending championship position.
In F1, there are plenty of different battles to explore during a Grand Prix weekend, from the top three drivers in first practice to the overall finishing positions in the race itself, as well as incidents, safety cars and red flags.
With bet365, bet boosts offer the chance to get better odds for popular scenarios – and in Mexico, Lewis Hamilton to win is at 11/1 (up from 10/1) while Lando Norris to finish in the top two is 6/1 (instead of 11/2).
George Russell has not had a podium finish since June and he could really do with one to stay in the battle with Norris and Charles Leclerc for championship positions (which they may say mean nothing, but really they do!). He is at 5/2 on bet boost, 9/4 otherwise.
Fernando Alonso is another driver who needs to score. His form at the start of the season, when he looked like challenging for the title with Aston Martin, has faded and he is now in danger of slipping below fourth. A top six would be a good result and is 9/4 bet boost or 2/1.
