Mexico City GP 2026: Lawson DQ reported

Autosport reported Liam Lawson was disqualified from Mexico City Grand Prix qualifying, a move that would strip him of ninth on the grid.

Autosport reported that Liam Lawson was disqualified from qualifying for the 2026 Mexico City Grand Prix, a move that would remove him from ninth on the starting grid. With the supplied information marked unconfirmed, the development remains reported rather than official.

The same report said Racing Bulls had placed both cars in Q3 at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez before Lawson lost his result. Lawson, born on 11 February 2002, went into the event ninth in the 2026 drivers' championship on 83 points.

The New Zealander had made 44 Formula 1 starts from 2023 to 2026 across three teams. If the reported disqualification is upheld, it would turn a top-10 qualifying result into a late setback for Lawson.
