Carlos Sainz completes the triple-header in Brazil, where he got his maiden F1 podium

• Carlos Sainz will race this weekend in the Sao Paulo GP at Interlagos, the track where he clinched his maiden Formula 1 podium back in the 2019 season and also the last race of a triple-header that started two weeks ago in Austin.
• The Brazilian track is one of the few in the calendar which is driven counter-clockwise, which poses an additional stress on the drivers. It is also known for its very abrasive surface, although turns 3, 5, 8 and 9 have now been resurfaced.
• The weather is set to play a key role: showers are forecast for Friday and rain is expected to have a more constant presence come the weekend.
