What happened: Haas have dropped Esteban Ocon for the remainder of the Mexico City Grand Prix weekend, with reserve driver Ryō Hirakawa taking over the car. Sky Sports F1 carried Karun's reaction to the move.

Why it matters: Ocon's 2027 seat went to Ferrari junior Rafael Camara, signed to a multi-year deal on October 18. Ocon had a power steering failure in Mexico practice on Friday.

What to watch: Hirakawa's first F1 start comes in qualifying and the race. Haas are also weighing Camara for an Interlagos debut, per a report.
