Today's F1 Brazilian GP qualifying start time
The qualifying session for the Formula 1 Grand Prix of São Paulo will take place today.
Please note this session will occur at a different time compared to Mexico last weekend.
Last year, Max Verstappen secured pole position quite convincingly. This season, it will be anything but easy. With an engine change, the Red Bull should be faster, but this has led to a penalty for the Dutchman.
It creates an opportunity for title rival Lando Norris to close the gap on Verstappen in the championship. However, the Brit has not qualified in the top three in the last three races in Brazil.
Who will be the fastest at the spectacular Autódromo José Carlos Pace Interlagos circuit?
The qualifying for the F1 Brazilian GP starts at 18:00 GMT. Don’t miss any of the action and make sure to turn on your TV in time! Who will take pole position this year?
