Round 21 is here and it’s the Sao Paulo Grand Prix weekend, it is another sprint race this weekend, and we’ve had some great ones in previous years!
Will Mercedes shine here again after taking the past two previous wins? Or can Max Verstappen make it another win and win number 17 this season?
Or could we get a Ferrari winning? Or maybe a first time winner for McLaren? This weekend is all to play for!
Who needs to shine?
Sergio Perez, after crashing out on lap 1 of his home grand prix last week, he has a lot of work to do this weekend, as the gap between himself and Hamilton has lowered to 20 points, if Hamilton keeps going the way his going then he will earn P2 in the Drivers’ Championship. But Perez will not want that so he needs to get a wriggle on.
Aston Martin, they’ve had a bit of a downfall from the beginning of the season. Now they sit 5th in the Constructors’, McLaren have managed to build a 20 point gap between the teams.
Not only this, Alonso is among a group of drivers who could quite easily catch up to the Spanish driver as there isn’t much between each driver in the standings.
Looking towards the back of the teams, Haas sit in 10th on 12 points, Alfa Romeo sit in 9th on 16 points and AlphaTauri sit in 8th on 16 points. This will be an interesting fight between six drivers all trying to get a few extra points.
Predictions for Qualifying-
My top five prediction for qualifying are- Pole: Verstappen, P2: Hamilton, P3: Leclerc, P4: Norris and P5: Russell.
Obviously, we have a sprint this weekend and it’s always a crazy sprint and race here in Brazil so we could very much see a Safety Car or a Virtual Safety Car…
