Watch Sao Paulo Grand Prix live streams as McLaren’s Lando Norris starts a race weekend in the title lead for the first time since April. The Briton will keep his eyes peeled for teammate Oscar Piastri and in-form defending champion Max Verstappen with 132 points up for grabs in the last four Grands Prix of a fascinating 2025 season.

Verstappen recovered well after some early controversy to finish third to Norris in Mexico and continues to look an ominous threat. The Dutchman has taken 134 points from a possible 158 over the past six races and is now just 36 behind Norris.

Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc was runner-up two weeks ago, with Oliver Bearmann in the Haas achieving the best finish of his nascent career to cross the line in fourth. Lewis Hamilton, though, will want to improve after another disappointing race. The Briton had qualified in third but received a 10-second penalty for leaving the track while gaining an advantage and was unable to recover to finish eighth.

It’s guaranteed to be an action-packed race weekend at Interlagos, Sao Paulo, Brazil with Friday featuring a practice session and Sprint qualifying. Here’s how to watch the Sao Paulo Grand Prix online from anywhere and potentially for FREE.

What is the Sao Paulo Grand Prix weather forecast?

Let’s just say, it’s time to dust off the wet tyres and make sure everything therein is in order. Yep, it looks like rain.

Thunderstorms are predicted for Friday’s practice and Sprint qualifying, with heavy rain followed by sunshine and showers for Saturday’s Sprint and GP qualifying.

Sunday is expected to be drizzly, which could cause it’s own problems as teams struggle to decide which tyres to use.

Could be interesting, then.

What is the Sprint race format?

The Sao Paulo Grand Prix in Austin, Texas, is one of six race weekends in 2025 to feature a Sprint. Over a 100km distance, the drivers compete in a fast-moving race designed to encourage lots of overtaking and less strategy.

First to take the chequered flag gets eight points, down to one point for finishing eighth. Sprint qualifying takes place on Friday, with the Sprint race the first track action of the day on Saturday.

Lewis Hamilton recorded his maiden Ferrari win in the China Sprint in March, McLaren’s Lando Norris took the flag in Miami in May and Red Bull’s Max Verstappen was first in Belgium in July and in October in the US edition.

After Sao Paulo, the final Sprint of the season is scheduled for Qatar.
