F1 Results Today: Mexican Grand Prix FP3 practice times - Hamilton struggles as surprise contender emerges

Max Verstappen completed a practice clean sweep by going fastest in FP3 ahead of this weekend's Mexican Grand Prix.

The Dutchman is looking to win an astonishing 16th grand prix of the season this weekend but his slim advantage over the rest of the grid gives potential for a thrilling qualifying session and possibly Sunday's race too.

Lewis Hamilton though was left disappointed following another poor session in Mexico where he could only place 10th as he and Mercedes were left trailing Verstappen's time.

The star of the session though was Alex Albon who in a Williams was the shock second fastest runner just behind Verstappen, leaving the Grove outfit with lots to be excited over heading into qualifying.

Here are the timesheets from all the practice action at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez.
