What happened: Green-flag conditions resumed at Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez after Lewis Hamilton stopped his Ferrari on track during Mexico City Grand Prix practice. Marshals wheeled the car behind the barriers to clear the circuit, concluding a brief Virtual Safety Car period.

Why it matters: The stoppage costs Ferrari valuable track time at high altitude as teams dial in cooling and downforce packages for the weekend. The incident also disrupts run plans just weeks after Hamilton overrode Ferrari's VSC pit call in Singapore.

What to watch: Ferrari will evaluate the car ahead of Saturday's final practice and qualifying sessions. Drivers return to setup work as the session continues under green.
