Formula 1 never stops. Archived in 3 weekends the trips to Austin and Mexico City, he is back on track to complete the American triptych and will do so on the Brazilian track in Sao Paulo dedicated to former Formula 1 driver, Carlos Pace, to compete in the Grand Prix of Brazil, fourth last round of the season.
It will be a very important appointment, especially with regard to the fight for the Drivers and Constructors world titles, which sees Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton on one side, Red Bull and Mercedes on the other.
Thanks to the success obtained in Mexico, Max Verstappen brought a 19-point lead over Lewis Hamilton. Almost a grand prize away (25 points +1 in case of fastest lap). And now comes Interlagos, one of the tracks on which, at least on paper, the RB16Bs should have considerable advantages over the W12s.
But that’s not all, because the fight for the Constructors’ title also continues, with Red Bull almost eliminating the gap from Mercedes in one fell swoop and now there is just 1 point between the two.
The fight for third place in the Constructors’ World Championship is also beautiful, with Ferrari having managed to overtake McLaren again and in Brazil will be able to try to stretch out on rivals from Woking. Always to keep an eye on AlphaTauri and Pierre Gasly, who have now become a factor in all respects.
