Can Red Bull make it nine in a row?
It has been a season of dominance for Max Verstappen and Checo Perez. The Red Bull duo have won 15 races of the 19 run in the 2022 F1 season, and now they head south of the border in pursuit of No. 16.
After another ho-hum victory for Verstappen in the United States Grand Prix, the grid heads to Mexico City. It could be a celebratory homecoming for Perez, who finished on the third step of the podium in 2021.
Unsurprisingly, teammate Verstappen finished on the top step — an outcome that could be likely Sunday afternoon, and maybe for the following two races, as well.

Formula 1 schedule 2022
There are 22 scheduled events on the F1 docket for 2022, one race shy of tying the mark for longest F1 calendar.
The season started in Bahrain on March 20 and will end with the customary Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, although a bit earlier than usual, in November. If the schedule stands, this will be the earliest end of the Formula 1 season since the 2013 season ended on Nov. 4.
Returning to the 2022 F1 slate are the Canadian and Japanese Grand Prix, both of which were canceled in 2021 amid fallout from the coronavirus pandemic.
The calendar also contains the maiden voyage for the Miami Grand Prix, the first of two races in the United States in 2022, with the customary United States GP taking place in October.
The Russian Grand Prix, originally scheduled for Sept. 25, was canceled because of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
