2025 Race 21 - Brazil

[F1nKS]

Brazil 2025

Early weather forecasts are for rain on Saturday and Sunday. Historically 86% of safety car. Could be chaos.

Will Norris, with the lead, feel the pressure?

Will Piastri change his bad mojo?

I hope if we have rain it stays light enough that the race can continue without delays except for safety cars or actual incidents.

I understand the cars throw a lot of spray but it seems like they can hardly race in the wet anymore. The intermediate tires get used, and the race is red flagged before the full wet even go on the cars.


It's a shame it has been working out that way because I actually enjoy a wet race to help weed out some of the better drivers.

Always at great race in Brazil. Race would just make is crazier and I'm not sure we need that after Mexico.

With the sprint weekend coming to Sau Paulo, the title fight could get a real shake-up, and with rain expected (https://www.gpfans.com/en/f1-news/1066769/f1-2025-brazilian-grand-prix-weather-forecast-latest-sao-paulo/), we can definitely expect some drama. No matter what the weather does, there will be plenty happening for the fans. Along with live performances from Alok and Jorge Aragão, there will be driver appearances, team merchandise stalls, F1 simulators, and interactive pit stop challenges around the circuit.

This is one of my favourite tracks , always throwing up a fun watch .

Light rain for the start , then drying for a while , and then a light sprinkle at the end is what I hope for , and thus predict , having looked into the crystal ball on this one .

I'm not so sure about your prediction. Maybe ask Trophy Wife, since her prediction on FGP has her leading you! :laugh:

But I'd be good with your prediction. Anything that doesn't stop the race due to too much rain, and keeps the cars running. Light rain, changing conditions.... anything other than red flags for it being too wet.

[Bagwan]

Oh no , Shifter , I was talking about the race , itself , not this sprint nonsense .
And I think my Trophy girl would agree , given her Liam and Yuki combo were both out in SQ1 .

It sounds like it may be a rain delay or even cancellation .

Take the wings off the cars and get back out there .
Now , there's an idea with legs .

I'll say it - Oscar has thrown the championship away.

I'll say it - Oscar has thrown the championship away.

Following Piastri's sprint race result and Verstappen's struggles in qualifying, it appears Norris is the one to beat.

[F1nKS]

Red Bull didn't show up this weekend. Racing Bulls got to Q3.

[F1nKS]

Piastri is fighting back. On provisional pole. Here comes the final run...

Norris answers and takes the pole. Piastri drops to 4th.

[Steve Boyd]

How long before Max is on the phone to Marko asking for a transfer to the Racing Bulls?

[F1nKS]

Jos did not look very happy. I wonder if he will be at any more races after this weekend.
