3 races to go for the 2023 Formula 1 season to conclude…or make that 4 if you are one of those who counts a Sprint as an extra race! Btw, is it the Brazil Grand Prix or the Sao Paulo Grand Prix – what name did you grow up to?
Interlagos is a very popular racing venue. It stands for ‘between the lakes’ in Portuguese. If there’s one circuit we don’t mind the Sprint at, it’s this. Lewis Hamilton’s charge to the front in the Sprint and Grand Prix in 2021 is still fresh in our memory.
In this episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast, Soumil Arora, @f1statsguru and Kunal Shah preview the 2023 Sao Paulo Grand Prix. Will we see a different team step up to claim P2 behind Max Verstappen? Will Verstappen’s dominant win-all-races continue at Interlagos? Yes, Red Bull Racing messed it up at Interlagos last year. But most Formula 1 teams don’t repeat mistakes.
But what do the stats say? As @f1statsguru points out, the pole sitter of the Hungarian Grand Prix has gone to win the Sao Paulo Grand Prix since many years. If this trend continues, Lewis Hamilton will win top honours this Sunday.
In this episode, the trio talk about the unique characteristics of Interlagos, expectant weather this weekend, Williams’ chances and if Aston Martin’s decline in form and results will continue.
We’ve see three different pole sitters in the last three years – remember Kevin Magnussen? And we’ve had three different race winners in the last three years. Let’s see who takes top honours this weekend…two times over!
Tune in!
