I've received a link to a large file (2 GB) in Google Drive. I know the file has a very high compression ratio, and my internet connection is really slow.
Is there any way to zip the file before downloading it?

You can't zip single files, but if you download multiple files at once Google will zip all of the files.
Easiest option is to select your large file, then Ctrl+Click (Cmd+Click on Mac) on a second file, and right click either file and select "Download". Google will then take an astronomical amount of time to process the two files and eventually let you download a zip of the two files.
