19:53 Hamilton apologizes to Albon for the incident, but this should not prevent him from a fair penalty.
19.52 And the Ferrari? Come home with yet another ugly figure. Leclerc had made an exciting comeback, while Vettel had not shone. Then a battle hallucinating to the last blood, with the Monegasque and the German who touched each other, puncturing both. A double retreat that is very bad!
19.51 Verstappen deservedly won, nothing to say. Hamilton finished third, but risks being penalized: the commissioners will decide in the post-race.
7.48pm Everything happened in the last 10 laps! Verstappen has overtaken Hamilton on the track, Leclerc and Vettel, absurdly, have thrown each other out! Hamilton made a strike with Albon, Toro Rosso took the podium with Gasly. CRAZY!
71 lap / 71 Max Verstappen wins the craziest race of 2019 in front of Gasly, Hamilton, Sainz, Raikkonen, Giovinazzi, Ricciardo, Norris, Perez and Kvyat!
71 lap / 71 TORO ROSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!! GASLY PRECEDE IN FLYING HAMILTON AND IT'S SECOND! GIOVINAZZI SESTO! There is a bit of joy for Italy even without the Ferraris!
71 lap / 71 Hamilton under investigation, he risks a probable penalty!
70th lap / 71 PAZZESCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !! AN ASSURDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA RACE !!! Crazy attack by Hamilton, who blows Albon! Tail tail for the Thai, damaged wing for the Mercedes! Gasly is second with Toro Rosso!
69th lap / 71 Hallucinating what happened in the Ferrari home. A meaningless battle that denoted how the relationships between Vettel and Leclerc are anything but idyllic.
Lap 68/71 Hamilton returned to the pits to replace the tires, taking advantage of the safety car. Verstappen is first ahead of Albon and, incredibly, Gasly's RED BULL! 4th world champion!
Lap 68/71 Both Vettel and Leclerc shouted angrily over the radio. Vettel: "What the hell is he doing?" Bad signals also from the perspective of 2020. There is no guide in this team, anarchy reigns on the track and these are the results …
67th lap / 71 What happened? Leclerc attacked and passed Vettel on the brakes at the end of the straight. The German reacted, took the trail and tried the counter-step. Leclerc's right front tire touched Vettel's left tire. Result? Both drilled and retired. Safety car on the track!
66th tour / 71 INCREDIBILEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE !!! ASSURDOOOOOOOOOOO !!! HARAKIRI FERRARIIIIIIIII !!! Vettel and Leclerc retire !!! IT IS NOT POSSIBLE!!! IT IS NOT POSSIBLE!
65th lap / 71 Ferrari is likely to find itself with a handful of flies today. The pace, although good, has always been slightly slower than that of Red Bull and Mercedes. Red Bull who, in particular, is impressing with the Honda engine.
Lap 64/71 VETTEL ATTACK ALBON OUTSIDE! The Thai resists with a desperate detachment, the two almost touch each other!
Lap 63/71 ALBON ATTACKS HAMILTON! For the moment the British resists, having more worn tires than the Red Bull driver!
Lap 62/71 Verstappen has already run away, 2 "4 on Hamilton. It's made for Red Bull! The world champion can manage just 7 tenths on Albon, then the Ferrels of Vettel and Leclerc.
61 lap / 71 Albon glued to Hamilton, Red Bull dreams of a double!
60th lap / 71 Hamilton slowed down too much before the restart. Verstappen took it in his wake and passed it at the end of the straight stretch to the outside! Useless reaction of the British who tried outside without luck! Evil Vettel, who is now also attacked by Leclerc!
60th lap / 71 VERSTAPPEN PASSES HAMILTON TO THE DEPARTURE! Albon surprises Vettel.
59th lap / 71 The safety car is about to return to the pits …
59th lap / 71 Ingenuity of Leclerc, who almost stops Albon. We recall that under the safety car system it cannot be exceeded
58th lap / 71 The procession continues behind the safety car … Every lap that passes is an advantage for Hamilton.
57th lap / 71 Always safety car on the track … Let's get ready for the fireworks …
57th lap / 71 Hamilton in the lead, then Verstappen, Vettel, Albon and Leclerc. Now the group has regrouped, the restart Verstappen and Leclerc will have new tires compared to Hamilton, Vettel and Albon … Giovinazzi is tenth.
Lap 56/71 PIT-STOP FOR LECLERC! Mount new soft tires, can blow the bench!
55th lap / 71 VERSTAPPEN RETURNS TO THE BOXES AND MOUNTAINS SOFT! HAMILTON HOWEVER REMAINS ON THE TRACK!
SAFETY-CAAAAAAARRR !!! CHANGE TUTTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!
54th lap / 71 We will see yet another melee between Verstappen and Hamilton! They are together! 3rd Vettel at 21 ″ 3, 4th Leclerc at 38 ″, 5th Albon at 41 ″ 5.
Lap 53/71 HAMILTON GOES TO RESUME VERSTAPPEN! JUST 1 ″ 2 FROM THE Dutchman! CRAZY FINAL!
Lap 52/71 EXIT THE SMOKE FROM THE BOTTAS ENGINE! BREAKAGE, WITHDRAWAL FOR MERCEDES!
51 lap / 71 Albon stops and mounts the soft. Return to sixth position. Vettel is third, Leclerc fourth: he continues to keep behind Bottas! Now the Monegasque is the only one to have stopped only once in the top six.
50th lap / 71 Now Verstappen is in the lead with 1 "6 on Hamilton, 19" 6 on Albon and 21 "6 on Vettel. Of the first four, Albon stopped once less.
50th lap / 71 Pit-stop for Vettel, with soft tires.
49 lap / 71 WHO LECLERC COMBAT! Protects the interior and does not pass Bottas!
Lap 49/71 Verstappen picked up Vettel, just 1 ″ 6 between the two. There will be little to do.
48th lap / 71 Nothing to do for Bottas. Despite being clearly faster than Leclerc, he can't get over it. Ferrari puts the engine power to good use.
47th lap / 71 Leclerc still defends himself from Bottas! Vettel loses 1 ″ 5 from Verstappen and Hamilton, unthinkable that it goes all the way with the averages.
Lap 46/71 Bottas attacks Leclerc, Ferrari closes the door!
46th lap / 71 Vettel in the lead (1 stop) with 7 ″ on Verstappen (2) and 8 ″ 5 on Hamilton (2). Followed by 16 ″ Albon (1), 28 ″ Leclerc (1) and 28 ″ 2 Bottas (2).
Lap 45/71 Pit stop for Verstappen, Red Bull mechanics are faster than Mercedes. The Dutchman stays ahead, but not by much!
Lap 45/71 Bottas, with fresh tires, is quickly going to take Leclerc back, momentarily fifth.
44th lap / 71 Hamilton pit-stop rather slow, 3 ″ 3. Mount medium tires. Now Verstappen's obvious answer will come.
Lap 43/71 Antonio Giovinazzi travels in ninth position, 5 ″ behind team-mate Raikkonen. He must not make mistakes.
Lap 42/71 Bottas pit stop, mounts medium tires. The attempt to make a single stop was shipwrecked.
Lap 42/71 HAMILTON DOESN'T GIVE UP! Half a second earned, it is located at 2 ″ 9 from Verstappen. But the British let it be known by radio that "the tires have gone".
41 lap / 71 At the moment there is a fight for the first position between Verstappen and Hamilton and for the fourth one between Bottas and Albon, separated by 3 seconds. Vettel's and Leclerc's Ferraris are found in a bain-marie, apparently without targets.
Lap 40/71 Stretch Verstappen, 3 "4 on Hamilton. Impressive as the Dutch driver passed the world champion on the track after overcoming himself with an undercut.
39th lap / 71 Always 3 ″ the gap that separates Hamilton from Verstappen.
Lap 38/71 Vettel complains about a rear tire slip.
37th lap / 71 Verstappen in the lead with 3 "1 on Hamilton, 12" on Vettel, 21 "on Bottas, 26" 8 on Albon, 39 "5 on Leclerc. The first two will be forced to stop again, the others could theoretically go all the way.
Lap 36/71 Leclerc is the fastest on the track, but the differences are really small. It is certainly the race in which the values are more leveled.
35th lap / 71 It's a race, not to mention, of tires. Bottas, if he doesn't stop, he could play for victory with Verstappen and Hamilton.
Lap 34/71 Vettel currently holds the fastest lap of the race in 1’12 ″ 2, obtained with medium tires.
Lap 34/71 Stretch Verstappen, 3 "2 on Hamilton. The British is struggling with soft.
Lap 33/71 Hamilton is the slowest at this stage, but balance reigns. The first six are running all within a half second of detachment.
Lap 32/71 It is almost unthinkable that Vettel can go all the way with the averages. Bottas instead could do it with the hard.
Lap 32/71 Verstappen leads the 2019 Brazilian GP with 2 "5 on Hamilton, 12" on Vettel, 21 "on Bottas, 26" 3 on Albon, 39 "on Leclerc. The Monegasque lost a lot before the pit stop, when he had completely worn tires.
Lap 31/71 It's a very open race. Verstappen and Hamilton now have soft tires, Vettel and Albon are medium, Bottas and Leclerc are tough… Who will have guessed the right strategy?
30th lap / 71 Another 7 tenths earned by Vettel on the leading pair. Pit stop for Leclerc, which mounts the hard and imitates the Bottas strategy.
Lap 29/71 VECTEL SUBSTRATE! With the averages you gain 1 dry second on Verstappen and Hamilton and climb over Leclerc! German is third!
Lap 28/71 It's a beautiful race. Verstappen in the lead with 1 "8 on Hamilton and 12" on Leclerc. At 14 ″ Vettel, then Bottas at 21 ″ 9 and Albon at 26 ″ 5. Of the first six, only Leclerc has not yet stopped.
27th lap / 71 Under investigation the episode that saw Verstappen and Kubica in pit lane colliding.
Lap 27/71 The Mercedes shuffles the cards further. Bottas returns and mounts hard tires (the white compound).
Lap 26/71 Pit-stop also for Vettel, who has medium tires. Theoretically it could go all the way, but many laps are missing …
Lap 26/71 Albon stops and mounts medium tires.
Lap 25/71 The situation: Vettel in the lead with 5 "4 on Bottas, both did not stop. 3rd Verstappen at 8 ″ 1, 4th Hamilton at 10 ″ 1 (for them two already a stop). 5th Leclerc at 14 ″ (without having stopped yet).
24th lap / 71 Both Verstappen and Hamilton fitted soft tires, the same as those they used since the start. So they will have to stop again to use a different compound!
Lap 23/71 THAT SPECTACOLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!! Verstappen took the lead from Hamilton on the straight and passed him back with a proverbial breakaway! The British tried the answer, but the Dutch closed the door! THIS IS THE FORMULA1!
Lap 22/71 TRAINING! Verstappen almost clashed with Kubica in the pits! He lost a lot and returned to the track AT HAMILTON'S SHOULDERS!
Lap 22/71 Verstappen responds immediately and returns to the pits.
21st round / 71 KEY MOMENT! Pit stop for Hamilton, which mounts GOMMA SOFT! Therefore he will have to stop once again by force of regulation!
Lap 20/71 Leclerc started from 14th place and, in ten laps, he moved up to sixth place. The comeback is not over: now in front of him is Albon … And even Bottas and Vettel are not far away.
Lap 19/71 What a duel between Verstappen and Hamilton! Just 2 seconds difference between the first and the second!
Lap 19/71 Now Leclerc sees Albon, only 1 "8 between the two.
Lap 18/71 It seems like a two-way fight for the victory between Verstappen and Hamilton. Ferrari is playing the podium with Vettel and also Leclerc.
Lap 17/71 Verstappen responds to Hamilton and trims him 3 tenths. Now 2 ″ 4 between the two.
17th lap / 71 IS UNDER LECLERC! 2 ″ 3 from Albon, he must try to take the trail and claim the power of the Ferrari engine!
16th lap / 71 5 second penalty for Ricciardo after contact with Magnussen.
Lap 16/71 Vettel runs half a second slower than Verstappen and Hamilton, as well as Bottas, Albon and Leclerc.
15th round / 71 HAMILTON ARRIVES! It drops below the two second gap from Verstappen. The Mercedes is impressive …
Lap 14/71 The first three are making a difference and they are enclosed in 5 seconds. Bottas is fourth at 10 ", Albon fifth at 13" 8, Leclerc sixth at 16 "9.
13th lap / 71 Leclerc is forcing as never before, he took it to 2 ″ 9 from Albon!
13th lap / 71 Watch out for Hamilton, he earns 4 tenths and goes to 2 ″ 1 from Verstappen, who complains a vibration to the left front tire!
12th lap / 71 For Leclerc now the game gets tough, he has to close a gap of 3 ″ 5 to go back to Albon, who precedes him in fifth position. We'll see if it makes us dream …
11th lap / 71 The first three are traveling at the same times at this stage. Verstappen drives with 2 ″ 4 on Hamilton and 4 ″ 8 on Vettel. The fastest on the track is Leclerc with the averages!
10th lap / 71 LECLEEEEEEEEEEERC !!! OTHER SORPASSOOOOOOOOOOO !!! Once more on the inside at the end of the straight, past Gasly! The Monegasque is already sixth and is located 15 ″ from the summit!
Lap 9/71 Leclerc resumed Gasly, the attack soon. Verstappen always in command with 2 ″ 5 on Hamilton.
8th lap / 71 Contact between Ricciardo and Magnussen, the Danish goes into a spin.
Lap 8/71 Leclerc is quickly going to take Gasly back for sixth place!
7th lap / 71 At the moment Vettel is third at 1 ″ 7 from Hamilton and with a 3 ″ lead over Bottas. Mercedes not brilliant at this start.
7th round / 71 SETTIMOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!! LECLEEEEERC! It's overtaking them at double speed! Impressive power of the Ferrari engine on the straight, stripped of Raikkonen's Alfa Romeo!
6th lap / 71 Verstappen unleashed, but Hamilton tries to respond.
Lap 6/71 Leclerc attacks Raikkonen, the Finn pulls the break in life and resists!
5th lap / 71 Verstappen on the run, 2 "5 on Hamilton, 3" on Vettel and 5 "on 9 Bottas, heeled by Albon. What a Red Bull at this start!
5th round / 71 ANCORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!! LECLEEEEEERC! This time he puts in Grosjean with a detached dry inside! He wants to go and get them all!
4th round / 71 LECLEEEEEEEEEEEEERC !!! ATTACK ON THE EXTERNOOOOOOOOO !! Once past Magnussen, it's ninth! A furious comeback, it's a real BORED TOWER! Raikkonen overtakes Grosjean and is seventh with Alfa Romeo!
3rd round / 71 Verstappen tries to escape, 2 seconds on Hamilton. Slow Vettel, who loses ground and sees Bottas approaching only 8 tenths!
3rd round / 71 Now there is Magnussen in front of Leclerc.

1st round / 71 THE LECLERC REMOVAL STARTS! Overcome Ricciardo and Norris in one fell swoop, it is already eleventh!
1st lap / 71 Bad start for Vettel, he is overtaken by Hamilton. Leclerc is 13th.
GREEN LIGHT! The 2019 Brazilian F1 GP started!
18.13 Here we are, the pilots line up on the starting grid …
18.12 There are 71 laps to go, anything can happen. Leclerc hopes for a safety car …
18.11 Vettel and Leclerc must warm up the tires as best as possible, they should not be caught at the green light …
18.10 Reconnaissance tour!
18.08 28 matches out of 36 played at Interlagos were won by those starting from the front row (15 successes from pole, 13 from the second box).
18.06 We will have fun with Charles Leclerc. The Monegasque will have to go wild in a desperate comeback, he has nothing to lose and will be able to benefit from a fresh and completely new power-unit.

18.04 The record of victories in the Brazilian GP belongs to Prost with 6.
18.03 Of active drivers Sebastian Vettel is the one who has won several times at Interlagos, 3. He follows Lewis Hamilton with 2.
18.02 Ferrari, throughout the season and with the exception of a few favorable tracks, has always experienced problems with tire management over the long term. Even today the Red Army, on paper, is behind behind Red Bull and Mercedes in terms of performance. For this it will be crucial the departure …
18.00 Today it is much warmer than in recent days. One more unknown for tire degradation.

17.58 Ferrari could split the cards with Leclerc: the Monegasque will start with the averages from the fourteenth position, he will need a furious comeback and also a bit of luck.
17.57 On top of the card, the top teams will make one pit stop. The first 10 will all start with the soft ones, to understand if at the pit stop the medium or the hard will be mounted.
17.56 From 2014 to 2018, or since the beginning of the turbo-hybrid era, Mercedes has won four times. The only one to break the balance of the Silver Arrows was Sebastian Vettel with Ferrari in 2017.
17.55 Brazilian national anthem.
17.54 In the last one the race has not shown an exceptional starting system. Today it will necessarily be necessary to reverse the trend so as not to compromise the race immediately.
17.52: "I'm happy with the front row, we'll see what we can do tomorrow. The car went well, it improved during qualifying and this was our goal. We hope to be able to continue the momentum even tomorrow in the race“, Vettel's statements after qualifying (source: Sky Sport).
17.51: Less than twenty minutes at the start of the GP and the tension on the starting grid goes up!
17.49: Contrary to the past days, there is the sun and therefore a dry race is anticipated.

5.47pm: The strategy for today's race will be rather complicated as the teams have collected very little useful data during yesterday's free practice. If the thermals will be those seen today, the soft, especially in the first stint, could suffer a lot and for this, it is conceivable, that the best compounds for the race could be the medium ones and the hard one that, in FP2, was tested only by Mercedes of Bottas.

17.43: Analysis of the chronological period which, therefore, gives reason to Charles, strongly disappointed at the end of the qualifications, forced to start 14th.

17.41: If we focus on the analysis of the best sectors we can see that, Leclerc, failed to put together a good round and this explains its truly disappointing qualification. The driver from Monaco, with time in hand, had the potential to undermine Verstappen, since his ideal lap is better than his best lap of 242 thousandths.
17.38: If we look at the best intermediate times obtained by the top 6 during qualifying we can see how fast the Red Bull of Verstappen was in the first and third sector. In these two sections of the circuit, where power is fundamental, Verstappen managed to build his pole position because he was able to limit the damage to Ferrari and Mercedes.

17.35: The top drivers decided to qualify during the Q2 by fitting the soft tires. The only exception among the top teams was the choice of Leclerc which, having to reassemble, preferred the average compound which should guarantee the Monegasque driver a first rather long stint.

17.33: On this track the tires are subjected to high lateral and longitudinal forces, which increases the temperature of the compound which never takes too long to rest. The downforce is on average high, with equal need for mechanical and aerodynamic grip, which leads to extra effort for the tires.
17.30: As far as the Power Unit is concerned, the Brazilian track will not be too demanding for the endothermic units, but will put the turbochargers under pressure. To compensate for the loss of power, estimated at around 1.5%, due to the more rarefied air, the turbocharger unit will have to run at a speed greater than about 2,000 rpm.
17.28: The Interlagos circuit is located 800 meters above sea level and therefore the teams will have to face, albeit to a lesser extent, some problems faced in the recent GP of Mexico.
17.26: The Brazilian track is a track usually of medium / medium-high downforce due to the many curves present above all in the second sector, which however also enhances the motor characteristics of the cars. In fact, it is worth noting the presence of two long straights between the first and third sector where it will be necessary to generate very high speeds both to minimize the loss of time on the lap and to be able to be efficient in performing overtaking in the race.

17.23: A circuit, on paper, that should smile at the SF90, endowed with great power.
17.20: The Prancing Horse technicians, in fact, could not help but change the second unit used in Austin (United States) and at the same time failed to recover the EV03 engine damaged during the FP3 in Texas. Therefore a handicap race for Charles is planned, but he will want to throw his heart beyond the obstacle

17.18: Ferrari will have to deal with the penalty to Charles Leclerc. The Monegasque will start in 14th position on the starting grid for having replaced his Red's Power Unit, after the fourth time obtained in the time-attack.
5.15pm: Good evening and welcome to LIVE LIVE of the Brazilian GP, last act of the 2019 F1 World Championship. On the Interlagos circuit we will enjoy a great show and the race is expected to be very exciting and uncertain.

20.04 A qualification, at the showdown, dominated by Verstappen. Red Bull made a clear difference on Ferrari and Mercedes in the central section, the most driven, where they count traction and aerodynamics.
20.02 Bottas, Albon, Gasly, Grosjean, Raikkonen and Magnussen complete the top10.
20.01 Vettel does not improve and remains second at 0.123 from Verstappen. 3rd Hamilton at 0.191. 4th Leclerc at 0.220: the Monegasque will therefore start from the 14th position due to the penalty.
20.00 1’07 ″ 508 for Verstappen, which gets better. The pole is yours.
19.59 Verstappen does not improve in the first sector. Leclerc is faster.
19.59 Last minute … Ferrari, Red Bull and Mercedes are being launched. Albon is the first of the big to launch.
19.58 Everyone on the track for the final assault on the pole!
19.57 Last 3 minutes.
19.56 The Dutch is therefore clearly favored for the pole. Vettel has a duty to try! He must improve and hope that Verstappen does not do the same.
19.55 Verstappen, it must be said, has turned over a tenth slower than his best time in Q2.
19.54 1’07 ″ 623 for Verstappen, just 0.008 in front of Vettel! 3rd Leclerc at 0.105, 4th Hamilton at 0.238, 5th Bottas at 0.251, 6th Albon at 0.312.
19.53 NOOOOOOO !!! Verstappen is ahead of Vettel for the trifle of 8 thousandths !!! Ferrari not lucky …
19.51 Hamilton's first lap begins, followed by Bottas, Vettel, Leclerc, Verstappen and Albon.
19.50 Here is Ferrari and Mercedes, clearly with soft tires. Following the Reds is Red Bull.
19.50 On the track Raikkonen, Grosjean and Gasly. The top teams take their place.

19.43 Leclerc, with a compound of difference (average versus soft), concluded at 0.385 from Verstappen. For over half a second from both Dutch Vettel and Hamilton, fitting soft tires. The feeling is that it will be very hard to beat Red Bull today …
7.42 1'07 ″ 503 for Verstappen, great favorite for the pole. Leclerc, Vettel, Hamilton, Albon, Bottas, Grosjean, Gasly, Magnussen and Raikkonen follow. They are the 10 pilots qualified for Q3.
19.41 The Q2 ends, the riders eliminated from the eleventh to the fifteenth position: Norris, Ricciardo, Giovinazzi, Hulkenberg and Perez.
7.40pm The yellow flag is shown for a spin by Giovinazzi and no one can improve his lap.
19.39 Giovinazzi has to come up with a number to avoid cutting. Need a perfect ride. Leclerc on the track with the soft.
19.38 We recall that Leclerc is the only driver to have fitted the medium tires in this session, differentiating the strategy from the others. The Monegasque will have to serve 10 penalty positions.
19.37 Three minutes at the end of Q2.
19.36 At the moment eliminated Norris, Ricciardo, Giovinazzi, Perez and Hulkenberg.
19.35 Verstappen in the lead with 0.385 on Leclerc, 0.547 on Vettel, 0.585 on Hamilton. Follow Albon, Bottas, Grosjean, Gasly, Magnussen and Raikkonen. 13th Giovinazzi.
19.34 It is conceivable that Ferrari has used at most the Leclerc engine's horses, not instead for Vettel's … We will find out in Q3.
19.33 Not a great lap instead for Vettel. It's third at 0.547 from Verstappen, but with soft tires! He paid almost 2 tenths from Leclerc with an advantage over his team mate.
19.31 LECLERC TEMPONE WITH MEDIUM TIRES! It is second at 385 thousandths from Verstappen, but with a mix of difference! 1’07 ″ 503 for Dutch.
19.30 1’08 ″ 088 for Hamilton, 0.144 advantage over Bottas. Vettel is on the track with the soft.
19.29 Medium tires instead for Leclerc.
19.28 The first driver to exit the pits is Hamilton, followed by teammate Bottas. Soft tires for Mercedes.
19.27 Still no polita on the track.
19.25 START Q2! 15 minutes and five other pilots to be eliminated.
19.24 Ferrari, as a matter of fact, pays a lot, maybe too much from Red Bull in the central sector, around 3-4 tenths. A very difficult gap to fill in the first and third parts. The SF90 fatigue in slow curves, on this it will be necessary to work day and night during the winter.
19.23 On paper, the top teams should opt for medium tires in Q2, which would then be used for regulation even at the start of the race.
19.22 The complete classification of Q1. Verstappen is scary.

– Formula 1 (@ F1) November 16, 2019
19.20 Verstappen dominated the Q1 in 1’08 ″ 242, trimming 254 thousandths to Leclerc, 261 to Albon, 303 to Bottas, 314 to Vettel, 372 to Hamilton. Magnussen, Norris, Gasly and Hulkenberg complete the top 10. 12th Giovinazzi.
19.19 These pilots eliminated from 16th to 20th position: Kvyat, Stroll, Russell, Kubica and Sainz.
19.18 Leclerc gets better and moves up to second position.
19.17 The Ferraris are back on track.
19.16 Nothing to do for Sainz, he can't get on the track and will start from the last position with McLaren.
7.15 pm Giovinazzi is still 13th, but he can't be quiet.
19.14 3 minutes to the end, at the moment Verstappen is making the difference on all. Are Ferrari and Mercedes hiding and will the engine speed up only from Q2?
19.13 Six laps already covered by Leclerc with this train of soft tires, always on the 1’08 ″ 3 average. A good step.
19.12 At the moment eliminated Hulkenberg, Stroll, Russell, Kubica and Sainz.
19.11 Giovinazzi is 13th at one second. The Spanish Carlos Sainz is still timeless in the pits due to a technical problem with McLaren.
19.10 Leclerc gets better, but not enough to approach the Red Bulls. The Monegasque is third at 0.268 from Verstappen. Bottas sixth at 0.487.
19.09 Impressive Tempta by Verstappen, trim 261 thousandths in Albon and 3 tenths of a Ferrari. Hamilton is only fifth at 0.372.
19.08 Albon leads with 53 thousandths over Vettel. Not good news for Ferrari. The Reds pay too much in the central sector, the most driven one.
19.07 1'08 ″ 556 for Vettel, precedes Leclerc by just 36 thousandths.
19.06 Vettel's launched round begins.
19.05 On track also the Ferrels of Vettel and Leclerc.
19.05 Great Giovinazzi, he leads in 1’09 ″ 324, 39 thousandths better than Raikkonen.
19.04 1'10 ″ 688 for Russell, very high time of course for Williams, for some time the "cinderella" of F1.
19.03 Russell's launched tour begins.
19.02 Tempororeggiano Ferrari, Mercedes and Red Bull. Be careful because the sky is very cloudy, even if the rain should not come out.
19.01 Kubica returns to the pits immediately and does not complete the lap. Teammate Russell enters the track.
19.01 As usual, Williams is the first to take to the track with Kubica.
🚦 Q1 GREEN LIGHT 🚦
Qualifying is go with Robert Kubica!

19.00 START THE QUALIFICATIONS OF THE BRAZIL 2019 GP AT INTERLAGOS!

18.56 Ferrari will have to focus on Vettel to give the assault to pole position. Recall that Leclerc will be penalized by 10 positions for having assembled the fourth power-unit this season (three regulations are granted by regulation).
18.55 Current conditions at Interlagos. 21 degrees the air, 38.5 the asphalt. We will see how the track will evolve as it tires

18.50 10 minutes at the start of the qualifications! There are a lot of clouds around the circuit but they shouldn't bring rain. The sun is still the master.
18.48 Behind the top teams are Daniil Kvyat, seventh with Toro Rosso, and Antonio Giovinazzi eighth with Alfa Romeo. Then the two McLarens
18.46 We recall that Leclerc will suffer a penalty of 10 positions on the grid. In fact, on its SF90 only the endothermic engine (ICE) in the PU is replaced
18.44 Disappointing, instead, the sixth place of Bottas to 881 thousandths, behind also of Albon. The Finn seems not to repeat the Austin weekend. We'll see if he can turn into a qualifier.
18.42 Seb Vettel finished in fourth place at 344 thousandths, proving to be close to his partner but distant from the first two of the class

18.40 20 minutes at the start! Tension begins to rise at Interlagos! Qualifications will be dominated by balance and traffic, which could make the difference.
18.38 In the final stages of the FP3 the Monegasque also risked contact with Sainz. Misunderstanding on the Juncao curve but everything is ok.

18.36 He stopped in third position at 291 thousandths Charles Leclerc. La Rossa excels in T1 and T3, but in the most driven sector pays duty in comparison to rivals

18.34 Great second fastest for Max Verstappen at just 26 thousandths from Hamilton. Red Bull flies in T2, while suffering in the T3 with the Arquibancadas all uphill and power
Verstappen on top 👌

18.32 In the FP3 great performance by Hamilton which ended in 1: 08.320. English has shown that it has excellent speed, without forgetting yesterday's excellent race pace simulations
Hamilton noses ahead 👃

18.25 The last pole position, in Austin, went to Bottas. Previously six consecutive pole positions for Ferrari. Leclerc is the seasonal recordman with 7
18.23 Ferrari does not win at Interlagos since 2017 with Vettel, previously the last smile was dated 2008 with Massa's victory-mock when the title escaped him after the finish line in favor of Hamilton
18.21 The pole position record, instead, is the house idol: Ayrton Senna, with 6 pole. A 3 Hakkinen, Barrichello, Massa and Hamilton. Vettel is at 2.
18.19 The record of victories in the Brazilian GP goes to Alain Prost with 6, then to 4 we find Schumacher, 3 Vettel and Reutemann, 2 Hamilton, Rosberg, Senna and many others
18.17 It runs, from 1990 (and from 1973 to 1977 and from 1979 to 1980), on the Interlagos circuit, dedicated to Jose Carlos Pace. It is a 4309-meter track with 15 curves, extremely varied and spectacular

FERRARI STILL UNDER ATTACK FOR THE ENGINE: A NEW FIA STANDARD MAY LIMIT IT
The program of the Brazil GP (November 15th) – The presentation of the Brazil GP – Leclerc with the 2020 engine?
Hello and welcome back to LIVE LIVE of the free practice 1 of the Brazilian GP, penultimate round of the 2019 World F1 Championship. On the Interlagos track, the drivers and teams will try to find the ideal set-up in the shortest time in view of tomorrow's qualifying and the Sunday race.
Ferrari will have to deal with the penalty to Charles Leclerc. The Monegasque will in fact be sanctioned for 10 positions on the starting grid for having replaced his Red Unit's Power Unit. The Prancing Horse technicians, in fact, could not help but change the second unit used in Austin (United States) and at the same time they failed to recover the damaged EV03 engine during the FP3 in Texas. Therefore a weekend with a handicap is planned for Charles, but he could have a propeller in the 2020 version. We'll see.
A circuit, on paper, that should smile at the SF90, endowed with great power. A topic that has become hot in recent weeks, given that many teams (including Mercedes and Red Bull) have asked the FIA for clarifications on the use of petrol linked to maximizing engine performance. The second directive of the Federation on this topic feeds the controversy, given that Ferrari found itself at the center of a case, without ever having violated the rules in practice.
However, beyond this, German Sebastian Vettel is willing to stand out, eager to exploit the problems of the partner / rival and launch the gauntlet to the Mercedes, with Lewis Hamilton already world champion and Valtteri Bottas ready to grant the encore after what happened in the States. The Teutonic, for his part, must cancel the withdrawal suffered in the USA and Brazil has the chance to make up for it.
OA Sport offers you LIVE LIVE for the free practice 1 of the Brazilian GP, the penultimate round of the 2019 World F1 Championship: real-time news and constant updates. It starts at 15.00. Have fun! (Photo: LaPresse)
