Elbon: The track in Mexico suits our car.

Elbon: The track in Mexico suits our car.

      Last year Alex Albon made it to the qualifying final in Mexico, but retired from the race, and now hopes to build on that success…

      Alex Albon: "I think the Mexico track suits our car — there are more stop‑start corners where the FW47 looks pretty good. Honestly, I'm expecting more pace than the team's calculations suggest. Maybe this time I'm more optimistic than they are, which rarely happens.

      But I really do think this is a good track for us. It's important how you enter the first corner. In this race a lot depends on the start, since track position is very important. Last year I had a good start. Maybe even too good, which led to my retirement."
