F1 2025 Brazilian Grand Prix weather forecast - latest from Sao Paulo

F1 returns to Sao Paulo for the Brazilian Grand Prix this weekend as the title race welcomes a new leader.

Lando Norris' victory last time out at the Mexican GP saw him usurp McLaren team-mate Oscar Piastri at the top of the drivers' standings by only a single point.

Another podium finish for Max Verstappen keeps him in championship contention and 36 points behind Norris, with a win in Brazil crucial for the Dutchman's title chances going forward.

It's good news for Verstappen however, who returns to the scene of his spectacular victory in 2024 where he stormed from P17 in the wet to claim the Brazilian GP race win.

And to make it all even more exciting? Two races will feature at the 2025 Brazilian GP, with the sprint returning and an extra eight points on offer for the winner.

Will rain once again orchestrate chaos at Interlagos? Here is the full weather report across all competitive sessions at the Brazilian GP.
