Event Preview

A potentially season-defining race is set on the Formula 1 schedule for this weekend, as the São Paulo Grand Prix will be staged in Brazil. The race is typically one of the most entertaining of the season, with unpredictable weather conditions usually ensuring that there is plenty of drama unfolding on track.

The championship picture has changed in recent weeks, with Lando Norris’ win in Mexico sending him to the top of the standings. Norris holds a slender one-point advantage over teammate Oscar Piastri, who has failed to finish on the podium in each of the last four races.

Defending champion Max Verstappen has an excellent record in the São Paulo Grand Prix, and his championship credentials could be enhanced with victories in the Sprint Race and Grand Prix at Interlagos. At present, the Dutchman sits 35 points off the top spot.

Ferrari will be hoping to maintain their competitiveness in Brazil this weekend. Charles Leclerc has achieved podium finishes in each of the last two races, and that has led the team to second in the Constructors’ Championship standings.

Oliver Bearman could be a driver to consider in terms of a points finish this weekend. The Haas rookie was fourth in the Mexico City Grand Prix, achieving a top-ten finish for the third straight race.

São Paulo Grand Prix Picks

Verstappen’s record in the São Paulo Grand Prix deserves huge respect this weekend. The Dutchman’s championship dreams will likely hinge on the result this weekend, and we wouldn’t be surprised to see him claim wins in both the Sprint Race and Grand Prix.
