Pato O'Ward was taken to the medical centre after falling ill with food poisoning over the race weekend of the Mexico Grand Prix. The Mexican driver completed 30 laps during his time in Lando Norris's MCL39 on the Friday, but required treatment as his symptoms worsened.
Finishing 13th on the timesheets, O'Ward did not appear to have his running affected during FP1, but Motorsport.com understands that he was given IV fluids for dehydration and medication for stomach pain following his stint in the papaya-coloured car, with doctors also monitoring his heart rate.
