What happened: Red Bull called its crew to the garage as the pit lane opened ahead of the Mexico City Grand Prix at Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. The opening begins pre-race preparations before cars head to the starting grid.

Why it matters: Red Bull entered race day aiming to make up ground against front-row starters Lewis Hamilton and George Russell. Starting behind the Mercedes pair puts pressure on the team's early pit strategy and race pace at high altitude.

What to watch: Cars will complete reconnaissance laps to the grid before lights out in Mexico City.
