This weekend sees the return of both sprint races and one of the most popular venues on the F1 calendar as the drivers travel to Interlagos for the Brazilian Grand Prix. The legendary track has played host to some of the sport’s most iconic Grands Prix and title wins.
Max Verstappen kept his winning run going in Mexico City last time out, becoming the first driver in F1 history to record 16 race wins in a single season. His team-mate Sergio Perez, meanwhile, crashed out on the opening lap in front of a bumper home crowd.
However, this weekend could see the pendulum swing back towards Mercedes. The Silver Arrows have shown strong pace at each of the last three races and claimed their most recent Grand Prix victory at this track last year when George Russell ended his wait for an F1 win.
Brazilian GP UK start time
The Brazilian Grand Prix at Interlagos will get underway at 5pm UK time on Sunday, November 5th. This translates to a local time of 2pm.
As this is a sprint weekend, fans should mark their diaries for 2pm UK time on Saturday afternoon when the sprint shootout gets underway, with the first race of the weekend scheduled to begin at 6:30pm.
