Oscar Piastri expressed optimism following the second free practice session (FP2) at the Mexico City Grand Prix, despite describing his qualifying simulation as "pretty messy." The McLaren driver heads into the final practice session (FP3) with renewed confidence in the MCL40 car.

Piastri's comments came after a session where he encountered difficulties during his qualifying run, but he remained positive about the overall pace of the car. The team will analyze data ahead of FP3 to fine-tune the setup for qualifying later in the weekend.
