Formula 1’s latest triple header wraps up with our only South American race of the season – the São Paulo Grand Prix. Interlagos is a staple of the calendar, and its fast layout often makes for some incredible action come race day, making it even more of a reason to tune in for Round 20.
There’s a slight time zone shift that fans should expect this weekend, with lights out coming three hours earlier for those on GMT than it did last weekend.
The São Paulo Grand Prix will provide late-afternoon and early-evening viewing for fans in Europe and Africa, while fans in Asia and Oceania will be set for late-night and early-morning action.
Supporters watching across the Americas will be treated to some convenient weekend viewing.
Wherever you’re watching, we’ll have you covered with everything you need to follow the action on the Williams app.
