The Brazilian Grand Prix is set for November 3, 2024, at 15:30 GMT. This race wraps up a series of three exciting events with lots of drama in the United States and Mexico, where Max Verstappen and Lando Norris have been battling fiercely as the season nears its end.
Norris is chasing Verstappen in the World Championship standings, trailing by 44 points. In the U.S., Norris attempted to pass Verstappen but got penalized for going off track. Meanwhile, in Mexico, it was Verstappen who faced penalties twice, giving Norris a chance to close the gap. As we approach Brazil, tensions are rising between Red Bull and McLaren.
Brazilian Grand Prix Schedule
This weekend’s race will use the sprint format, one of only six races to do so. There will be just an hour of free practice before things get serious on Friday afternoon with sprint qualifying. The sprint race itself kicks off on Saturday, followed by qualifying for Sunday’s main event later that day.
A surprise twist came when wet weather delayed Saturday’s qualifying. The rain was so heavy that it had to be postponed until Sunday morning.
Fans might think this rivalry makes the races even more thrilling!
Here’s how Sunday looks:
- Qualifying: 10:30am
- Brazilian Grand Prix: 15:30pm
