Key Insights from the 2025 F1 Brazil GP Sprint Race and Qualifying
A palpable sense of familiarity swept through the Interlagos paddock as storm warnings buzzed on phones scattered across hospitality tables. The concern was that, similar to the previous year, Saturday’s sessions might be severely impacted by inclement weather. Last year’s experience left many dreading an early morning wake-up call.
This year, the forecast predicted storm activity from 6 AM to 9 AM. However, it struck earlier, causing rain to drench Sao Paulo overnight. Despite the thunder and downpours, the day began with damp but breezy conditions, allowing the event schedule to proceed without major interruptions. Fortunately, the overnight rain erased much of the grip established during Friday’s practice sessions, introducing additional unpredictability for both the sprint and qualifying events.
