The career of Formula 1 Brazilian Grand Prix It already has its official grid and its classification after being delayed due to heavy rain. It will be Lando Norris who starts from first position after taking pole during a difficult and long qualifying session, spent in the water, with several red flags and various accidents. Qualifying, scheduled for Saturday, was to take place on Sunday morning (Spanish peninsular time) and the race was brought forward to 4:30 p.m. also this Sunday.
The conditions of this classification of the Brazilian Grand Prix were very difficult at firstwith extreme rain tires for all drivers and with many difficulties for everyone. The situation improved throughout qualifying, with no rain in Q2, with drivers keeping extreme rain tires at the start, but quickly switching to intermediates.
In a drawn-out third quarter, during which there were two red flags due to accidents, one of the Fernando Alonso and another very strong Alexandre Albonit was Lando Norris who ended up taking pole, which is very important, since rain is also expected for the race.
In the second quarter, there were as many as two red flagsthe first by chance by Carlos Sainz and the second by Lance Stroll. And this one left Verstappen out of the game, and I can’t reverse the situation. The World Championship leader was 12th in this standings, but will start 17th due to his five-position suspension on the grid. Bottas (11th), Checo Pérez (13th), Carlos Sainz (14th) and Gasly (15th) It was the other drivers who were excluded in Q2, although they all added a position except Bottas due to this sanction imposed on Verstappen.
In the first quarter, in which a red flag was raised due to an accident at Colapinto, they were left out Hamilton (16th in qualifying, but will start 15th in the race due to Verstappen’s sanction), Bearman (17th, but will start 16th), Colapinto (18th), Hulkenberg (19th) and Zhou (20th). The big surprise was therefore the early elimination of Lewis Hamilton, who will start far behind on the starting grid for this Sunday’s race.
