McLaren drivers dominate the scene. We don’t know if it will be Verstappen, Piastri, Norris or Mad Max who crosses the finish line first. We do know about the speed of the national capital’s security team and especially of all those responsible for mobilizing video surveillance and the inhibition and containment capabilities associated with the Security Cabinet, and the pole position of metropolitan coordination.
The C5 mobile units will be co-pilots in the alignment of the ecosystem to take care of the Mexico City Grand Prix, considered the best in the world.
The entire team is made up of 83,414 cameras, reinforced with another 30,400 from the Ojos que Te Cuidan program, ready for this December 31, and a network made up of timely attention lines for emergencies, anonymous complaints or specific violence, such as those related to gender, fraud or extortion. An entire protection circuit with real-time monitoring.
In the logic of teamwork, the massive events where the C2 Móvil participate, whether of a religious, sporting or social nature, represent a kind of track tests to strengthen and refine strategies before each new urban race.
That happens on December 12 when millions of pilgrims visit the Basilica of Guadalupe, during the Half Marathon or the Marathon, in the LGBT march or when the engines of the Grand Prix roar at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, where every year the city accelerates its response capacity.
With their presence, the C2M – units equipped with telescopic masts, 360-degree cameras and direct connection to the video surveillance system – act as inhibitors and immediate reporting points. Last year alone, during the days of the Grand Prix, 69 incidents were recorded in the vicinity of the Autodrome, mainly related to traffic.
The strategy promoted by the Head of Government, Clara Brugada, understands security as an infrastructure of urban well-being. This is how he outlined it in a meeting with former Olympic athletes. The expansion of the Ojos que Te Cuidan program reinforces the ability to anticipate emergencies and distribute resources effectively, maintaining control of the wheel at every turn of the operation.
What is put into practice is not only the ability to monitor, but also to coordinate multiple institutions simultaneously: traffic, health, civil protection, security and citizen attention, to guarantee that mass coexistence does not become vulnerability.
In the run-up to the 2026 World Cup, the C5 is going at full speed.
