- 0:25Hamilton takes the lead into Turn 1 as Russell falls back.
- 3:36Leclerc receives a five-second penalty for leaving the track and gaining an advantage.

Hamilton takes the lead into the first corner, but the Ferrari story soon gets complicated. Sky Sports F1's "Mexico City Grand Prix Extended Highlights" follows Leclerc's off-track excursion, a penalty and two interrupted stretches of racing on a weekend that crowns Kimi Antonelli Formula 1's youngest world champion.
The highlights were the most watched of the channel's fifteen new uploads, reaching roughly 330,000 views. Antonelli's move inside Leclerc for third provides a key moment, while a separate celebration video gives the occasion room to breathe: the chequered flag, getting out of the car, the cooldown room and the podium.
Yet the busiest upload right now is the follow-up asking whether Leclerc cost Hamilton and Ferrari the win. It brings together reactions from both drivers and Fred Vasseur before analysing the incident. That distinction matters: the title poses the question, rather than settling responsibility. Martin Brundle's verdict is also gathering viewers, moving from Antonelli's achievement to Ferrari's difficulties.
Beneath the highlights, viewers are discussing Ferrari's handling of its drivers and asking for thumbnails that don't reveal results. Others point to Liam Lawson and Ryo Hirakawa as deserving more attention alongside the championship celebrations.
Across the channel, the week brought about 2.7 million views while subscribers held steady. Daily viewing is currently above its usual level. THE RACE also has a busy spell, while Quadrant and CarsandCameras are quieter than usual. For Sky Sports F1, the weekend has supplied both the race to replay and plenty to pick apart afterwards.
