A tricky afternoon for our team played out at the Mexico City Grand Prix, with Lance finishing in 14th and Fernando retiring halfway through the race. Read on for all the reaction from Sunday.
Lance started from P19 with Fernando in P14, with both looking to seize any opportunities the long run down to Turn One presented at lights out.
It was a frantic start, with several cars taking to the grass on the outside of Turn One.
Lance spun in the opening corners, but battled in the early laps to climb several positions.
Fernando picked up some minor front wing damage but was able to continue as both drivers pushed as hard as possible to get towards the top 10.
Halfway through the race, Fernando unfortunately had to retire his car due to a possible brake issue. The team will conduct further analysis to ascertain what went wrong.
In the second half of the race, Lance continued to push but could not break into the points. Ultimately, the pace of the car was not quite there for the drivers this weekend.
The team will now fly home after a double-header in North America, before heading to Brazil and a Sprint weekend in São Paulo on 7-9 November.
