When does the 2025 Brazil GP start? Here’s everything you need
Lando Norris will aim to strengthen his lead at the top of the drivers’ standings with the Brazilian Grand Prix next on the calendar. Here is the schedule for the race weekend in Interlagos.
Brazil GP Race Schedule
Last time out at the Mexico City Grand Prix, Norris moved ahead of teammate Oscar Piastri in the drivers’ title fight, with a dominant outing at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. The McLaren driver led every lap after qualifying on pole for the Mexico race.
In Brazil, however, a few tweaks could well be on the cards, especially considering the weekend features the fifth Sprint of the 2025 calendar.
During the previous Sprint weekend at the Circuit of the Americas, it turned out to be a challenging outing for the McLaren team, with both drivers making contact on the opening lap of the Sprint.
Here is the schedule for the race weekend in Brazil:
Friday, 07 November:
FP1: 14:30 - 15:30 BST (11:30 - 12:30 local time)
Sprint Qualifying: 18:30 - 19:14 BST (15:30 - 16:14 local time)
Saturday, 08 November:
Sprint: 14:00 - 15:00 BST (11:00 - 12:00 local time)
Qualifying: 18:00 - 19:00 BST (15:00 - 16:00 local time)
Sunday, 09 November
Race: 17:00 - 19:00 BST (14:00 - 16:00 local time)
Brazil GP Past Winners
Last time out at the Brazil Grand Prix, Max Verstappen stormed to victory from 17th place in what was a wet-weather masterclass at the Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace. The Red Bull Racing driver will have to clinch another victory to keep his championship hopes alive. The four-time world champion currently sits in third place, behind Norris by 36 points.
In 2023, however, Verstappen’s victory was less challenging than the race he had to manage last year. Other drivers, including Lewis Hamilton, have also tasted race victory at the Brazil GP in recent years. Below is a list of the past five race winners at Interlagos.
| Driver | Year |
| Max Verstappen | 2024 |
| Max Verstappen | 2023 |
| George Russell | 2022 |
| Lewis Hamilton | 2021 |
| Max Verstappen | 2019 |
