Formula 1, Brazilian GP: Norris on pole at Interlagos, Antonelli starts second

Lando Norris in a McLaren takes pole position at the Brazilian Grand Prix, at Interlagos. In the rain, the Englishman precedes George Russell, who however is penalized by five positions: his Mercedes teammate Kimi Antonelli will start from second place, setting the third fastest time. Fourth fastest time for Charles Leclerc, penalized by ten positions. Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen will start 20th and 21st, having also been relegated to the back of the starting grid due to a penalty.

In the second row, therefore, there will be the pair formed by Liam Lawson's Racing Bulls and Nico Hulkenberg's Audi. Completing the top 10 are Isack Hadjar (Red Bull), Oliver Bearman (Haas), Fernando Alonso (Aston Martin), Alexander Albon (Williams) and Oscar Piastri (McLaren). The Brazilian Grand Prix starts on Sunday at 6pm on the Interlagos track.

There were many fines due to interventions on machines and engines that exceeded the permitted seasonal limit. Russell changes a component of the power unit and loses five positions, while for the Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Hamilton it is 10. The Englishman, however, due to problems in free practice is forced to replace the entire power unit and therefore starts from the back of the grid, where he will find Max Verstappen behind him to keep him company, on whose Red Bull various interventions were necessary.
