F1 Practice Today: Brazilian Grand Prix 2025 start times, schedule and how to watch live on TV

F1 is back at the iconic Interlagos circuit this weekend for the Brazilian Grand Prix, with 33 points on offer thanks to a sprint race.

Sunday's grand prix is the 21st of 24 in the 2025 season, with Lando Norris, Oscar Piastri and Max Verstappen all squabbling over the championship.

Following a stunning weekend at the Mexican GP, Norris arrives in Brazil as the in-form driver, but does Piastri have what it takes to once again usurp his team-mate?

Elsewhere, Lewis Hamilton will drive in front of a home crowd for the first time in a Ferrari at the Brazilian GP, where he will hope to score his first F1 podium in scarlet.

Due to the sprint format at the Brazilian GP, only one practice session will take place today (Friday, November 7) making it all the more crucial for drivers to get to grips with the track.
