14.51 Nobody is preparing for the moment to get on track, as was to be expected. A lot of work on the cars that will probably go to make at least one training lap during the session, to verify that everything is in order.

14.49 For Sunday there should be no risk of downpours (the conditional in Brazil is always a must) and therefore for many teams it might not be worth risking accidents to accumulate probably useless data.

14.47 The sky is very dark and the rain has been falling for several hours. The activity on the track may not even be much because the conditions are very dangerous.

Ready for a wet and wild Interlagos laughs 🌧🌧

14.45 Fifteen minutes to the start of the session.

14.42 Ferrari is not the only one to have brought updates, Red Bull is in fact presented with a modification to the front wing that had already been seen on the occasion of Monte Carlo on Verstappen's RB15. For the Austrian team the objective is naturally to undermine the two great rivals as much as possible, even on a track like this that is less favorable to them.

14.40 We remind you that because of the time zone between Brazil and Italy the race will start on Sunday at 18:10 local time.

14.38 For Lewis Hamilton it is the first official champion release. The British is in great shape and can begin to concentrate towards 2020 in which he will go hunting for Michael Schumacher's historic record.

14.35 In this regard, the expectation for this new specification on the SF90 carried by Leclerc is very high. In any case, Interlagos should be a better track for the SF90 than in Austin and therefore the prospects for the Reds are encouraging.

14.33 The battle for the third position in the world ranking between the two Ferraris and the same Verstappen remains wide open. Leclerc starts with a good haul of points ahead (14 on Max and 19 on his partner), but this weekend he will have to pay a penalty of 10 positions on the grid for replacing his power unit.

14.31 Ferrari is back from the opaque weekend in America and, after the controversy that arose above all from the words of the Dutch Verstappen, is called to immediate redemption. Who, better than the track, can respond to the accusations?

14.29 The world titles have already been assigned, to the British Lewis Hamilton and to his Mercedes, and in these last two rounds we will try therefore to test some novelties in view of the winter. The desire of everyone to do well anyway remains high and the wait for the green light is very high.

14.27 We are back on track one week from Austin for the last appointment of an intense season, marked by the Mercedes domination in the first phase and by a good recovery of Ferrari in the second one. The day also includes the second session which will start at 19:00 Italian time.

2.25 pm Good afternoon, well back on OA Sport, ready to follow the approach to the first free practice for the 2019 Brazilian Grand Prix, which will start at 3:00 pm

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)
