described the conditions in Mexico as "crazy".
Lewis Hamilton enjoyed practice at the Mexican Grand Prix
despite the "crazy" conditions on Friday.
The world champion was 11th and fourth fastest in the
respective sessions at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez in
Mexico City.
Hamilton was shocked by how slippery the track was but said
he enjoyed the tricky conditions.
"It was really challenging out there today - for everyone I think -
but also a lot of fun," the Mercedes driver said.
"The track feels more like a go-kart track in the slow areas. It's
crazy how slippery it is.
"Because we're so high up in terms of altitude, there's even less
grip than in Monza, so the car was just sliding around.
"Of course, this is also because the track is new, so there is no
rubber on it yet, but it's getting better and better the more we
drive."
Hamilton's team-mate Nico Rosberg topped second practice
after Toro Rosso's Max Verstappen was fastest in the opening
session.
