Newly crowned Formula 1 world champion Kimi Antonelli is preparing for the São Paulo Grand Prix, scheduled for November 6–8, 2026, as Mercedes targets a second major title this season by securing the Constructors’ Championship.
The 20-year-old Italian claimed his maiden world title in Mexico, becoming the youngest Formula 1 world champion in history. He now has the opportunity to help Mercedes complete a championship double, with fans across the Middle East and North Africa able to follow every session live on TOD by beIN.
Mercedes enters the Brazilian Grand Prix with a strong opportunity to secure the Constructors’ Championship, needing to score at least three more points than Ferrari over the race weekend.
Meanwhile, the battle for second place in the Drivers’ Championship remains wide open, with Max Verstappen arriving in Brazil following his victory over Lewis Hamilton in Mexico. Just two points separate the two drivers, setting the stage for another intense showdown at Interlagos.
Interlagos Set for Another Thrilling Formula 1 Showdown
The São Paulo circuit has a reputation for delivering dramatic races and remarkable comebacks. In 2024, Verstappen secured victory in wet conditions despite starting from 17th on the grid, while Hamilton claimed his third Brazilian Grand Prix victory in 2021 after starting from tenth.
With multiple overtaking opportunities and unpredictable weather conditions, Interlagos is expected to provide another challenging and exciting test for the drivers.
