In Brazil, the climatic conditions are uncertain for the entire weekend. The Interlagos track is about 800 m above sea level. This race will consecutively be the second race at a high altitude after the Mexico City GP.

The qualifying session, on Friday, could be affected by wet conditions as showers are expected to hit the Sao Paulo track. The second free practice session is expected to have thunderstorms. Fans have started their predictions about the race day as their memories are still afresh about the Japanese Grand Prix where there was a delay in the start of the race.

The Brazilian circuit will host a 24-lap sprint race. With Max Verstappen already been crowned champion for 2022, the battle for the P2 in WDC is getting fierce. Fans don’t want that the weekend should get interrupted by any means.
