A little bit of history and numbers of pilots in Mexico
The Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, in his new format, he made his debut in Formula 1, a sport that has 23 years without holding a trial in the country of mexico. However, Mexico is not a rookie in this category, because there, in the previous version of this circuit, have been disputed 15 great prizes, from 1963 to 1970 and from 1986 until 1992. None of the riders today know what it is to race there, and the pilots most successful in that place are Jim Clark, , Alain Prost and Nigel Mansell, three with two wins. In recent times, the rumors of the return of racing to Mexico were becoming more and more strong, he even was included in the provisional calendar for 2014, but the works have not arrived on time and was delayed.
The remodeling of the layout was entrusted to Hermann Tilke, and the agreement to return to the calendar are announced in July 2014, with a contract duration of up to, minimum, 2019. Looking at the statistics, Hamilton lost in the united States the opportunity to equal the record of most poles in a year of Vettel. Got Rosberg in Austin, so that Mercedes still has a shot to match the 18 of Red Bull in 2011, and themselves in 2014. Other that pursues a record is the own Vettel, that if you win in Mexico would get the same victories that Schumacher (22) grand prizes different. Won’t have it easy.
