Severe Weather Threatens 2025 Brazilian Grand Prix in São Paulo: A Live Update
The 21st round of the Formula 1 season is set to take place in São Paulo, Brazil, but the event is facing a potential challenge: severe weather conditions. Brazilian authorities issued weather warnings as early as Thursday, anticipating an "extratropical cyclone" that could bring significant rainfall and strong winds to the region.
While São Paulo may not be the most severely impacted area, the expected precipitation could still reach extraordinary levels within 24 hours, with wind gusts potentially reaching up to 100 km/h. This could pose a challenge for the sprint race scheduled for 14:00 GMT (11:00 local) and the qualifying session for the main race later today at 18:00 GMT (15:00 local).
Stay tuned to this live blog for the latest updates from the Interlagos circuit and the São Paulo region as we monitor the weather and its potential impact on the Formula 1 event.
