What time does the F1 race start today? TV channel, starting grid for 2025 Brazilian Grand Prix image

Formula 1 fans, get ready — the Brazilian Grand Prix is bringing the action back to Interlagos Circuit this weekend.

Though McLaren teammates Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri are currently the hottest storyline of the race, both should keep an eye out for Max Verstappen, who has shaved his point differential down considerably in the last few races. 

After a stellar run in Mexico City, Norris is leading the World Championship for the first time since April. But, the sprint race format returned in São Paulo, which means big point opportunities for any of the top contenders. 

A strong sprint could give Norris or Piastri some breathing room, but Verstappen could use the advantage to claw back some points before the main event. 

Here's everything you need to know about the 2025 Brazilian Grand Prix, including start time, TV channel and streaming options for the F1 race.
