It's time to set the grid at Interlagos, with multiple front runners for Sunday's Grand Prix set for engine penalties. Follow the latest updates from the São Paulo GP with GPblog's liveblog below!
Max Verstappen topped the timesheets in the final practice session at the Autódromo José Carlos Pace, finishing ahead of Kimi Antonelli and Lando Norris. However, the Dutchman will start at the back of the grid on Sunday after Red Bull made multiple changes to the engine of Verstappen's RB22.
The Ferrari duo of Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton have also received a grid penalty, with both drivers taking new internal combustion engines for the Grand Prix. The pair each have a 10-place grid penalty. Hamilton, however, suffered further problems in FP3, pitting what was an unhealthy sounding SF-26 while reporting smoke in his cockpit with around 25 minutes to go.
Meanwhile, George Russell has confirmed he will take a five-place grid penalty at the São Paulo GP after his own engine change, while Cadillac's Sergio Perez is confirmed to start at the back of the grid after multiple changes.
