Scheduled for the weekend of November 5-7, the 4.31 km high-altitude circuit runs through colossal grand stands and the 71-lap race will be F1's sixth in the country since its return to the venue in 2015. It is predicted to be a sell-out like its American counterpart last month.
For Indian audiences Star Sports is the official broadcaster providing the F1 feed for the Mexican GP and for American audiences it will be ESPN Sport. Local Mexican audiences can view all the race action on Televisa.
