2026 Mexico City Grand Prix live timing: follow every session

Using a laptop? Open our web app in your browser. Following on your phone? Download our iOS or Android app. Whether you want a timing screen alongside the television or a way to follow the action while away from home, choose the option that suits your device.

How to follow Mexico City GP live timing on a laptop

Open the Formula Live Pulse web app on your laptop or desktop and head to Live Timing during the session.

There is no desktop application to install. Keep the browser window open to follow the running order and compare the timing picture across the field, including battles that may be happening away from the television cameras.

A laptop also gives you room to read the leaderboard while following successive laps. Watch whether a gap is consistently shrinking, check who has stopped and see how the order develops through each stint.

Download Formula Live Pulse for iOS and Android

For mobile users, our dedicated apps put the timing screen on your phone:

• iPhone and iPad: download Formula Live Pulse on the App Store.
• Android: download Formula Live Pulse on Google Play.

Install the app before the weekend, then head to Live Timing when the session begins. Your phone can serve as a second screen beside your television, or help you follow positions and lap times when you cannot watch the broadcast.

What can you follow with Formula Live Pulse?

Live timing adds detail to the headline running order. Across the weekend, follow:

• Positions and gaps: track the leader and the intervals between drivers.
• Lap and sector times: compare completed laps and see where time is being gained or lost.
• Tyres and pit stops: follow compounds, stints and changes in strategy.
• Race control updates: keep up with flags, investigations and session developments.
• Team radio: add context to decisions and incidents.

During practice, compare runs with care: fuel loads, tyre age and different programmes can all influence lap times. In qualifying, sector times help reveal how a lap is developing before the driver crosses the line.

During the race, follow the interval between two rivals across several laps. A single quick lap tells only part of the story; a sustained change in the gap is more useful when assessing who is catching whom.

Use live timing alongside your race coverage

Keep Formula Live Pulse within reach while watching the Mexican Grand Prix to follow the wider field. When the broadcast focuses on one battle, the timing screen helps you keep track of another.

Pay particular attention around pit stops. A driver can lose positions while stopping, then regain them as rivals make their own stops. Read the running order alongside tyre and stint information before judging how the strategy is developing.

Live timing provides session data rather than a race video stream. If you are following a delayed broadcast, bear in mind that timing updates may reach you before the corresponding pictures.

Have your preferred device ready before Friday’s opening practice: use our web app on your laptop, or our iOS and Android apps on mobile, to follow the Mexico City weekend from the first session to the chequered flag.
