In the first practice session at the Autódromos Hermanos Rodríguez in Mexico City, Max Verstappen, from the Toro Rosso squad, ended with the best time, while Sergio Pérez, Force India, ended with the ninth position.
"Checo" Pérez had some problems controlling his car, and had to go to pits and thus lost time.
Nico Rosberg also suffered mechanical problems due to a sharp braking and some fire sprouted from his car.
They were far from the ones with any troubles, albeit none so bad.
Felipe Nasr had some problems with a turn, but managed to get back to the road with major incidents.
