Because of the time difference for us Italians they won’t be traditional either the times of the various sessions on the Brazilian track where a reaction is expected from Ferrari, which wants to end the supremacy of Max Verstappen and Red Bull (who have already mortgaged the titles of drivers and constructors) and wants to return to victory before the end of the championship. Leclerc and Sainz will therefore be called up to fill the gap from the Dutch and Sergio Perez, but they will also have to fend off the Mercedes of Hamilton and Russell who in recent races seem to have reached, if not surpassed, the F1 -75 in terms of performance. .

Interlagos Circuit in Sao Paulo
A stop at one of Formula 1’s historic circuits for the 2022 World Championship.Autodromo José Carlos Pace located in the neighborhood interlagos from the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo it is in fact one of the oldest permanent circuits in the world that we still race on. Also in 2022, the legendary factory will host the Brazilian Grand Prix scheduled from the 11th to the 13th of November. The track is characterized by several particularly challenging climbs and descents for the drivers and different areas where it is possible to overtake: in turn 1, for example, or when braking in turn 4, as well as in the pit straight and in the “Opposite Straight“where DRS can be used.
The track measures 4,309 meters and 71 laps are covered during the race, totaling 305.91 km. Track layout requires high downforce to better face the driven section, with slow corners, but also a configuration that can allow good maximum speeds. The Interlagos circuit is very demanding for the passage as it is during the race the transmission will be very stressed with approximately 3200 gear changes made.
As for the brakes, on the other hand, as the official supplier of the Formula 1 brake systems Brembo suggests, the Interlagos circuit is a moderately demanding circuit. During each lap of the Autodromo José Carlos Pace the brakes are only used 7 times🇧🇷 The most demanding braking of all is the one on the first corner, where single-seaters go from 359 km/h to 132 km/h in 2.44 seconds during which they cover 145 meters.
to hold the Formula 1 win record at Interlagos is Michael Schumacher who won four. Among those in activity, the record holders are Sebastian Vettel and Lewis Hamilton with three victories at the Brazilian track. O history in the race instead it belongs to Valtteri Bottas, who in 2018 managed to stop the clock at 1:10,540.
