News - 2026-11-04 - By Jenny Marsh
RaceFans reported Ryo Hirakawa was promoted from 13th to a points finish on his F1 debut in Mexico after penalties for both Alpine drivers.
RaceFans reported that Ryo Hirakawa was promoted into the points after the 2026 Mexico Grand Prix when both Alpine drivers received penalties. The outlet said Hirakawa had finished 13th on his Formula 1 debut before a revised classification moved him into a scoring position.
Because the story is not confirmed here, that points finish remains reported rather than final. Hirakawa is currently listed 21st in the 2026 drivers' championship on one point, while Haas F1 Team has competed in Formula 1 since 2016 after its 2014 foundation and is still seeking its first race win and constructors' title.
