Formula 1 has brought forward the start of Sunday’s São Paulo Grand Prix due to the weather forecast.

The race was moved from 2:00 p.m. local time to 12:30 p.m. That means it will start at 10:30 a.m. ET instead of noon.

Sunday’s Grand Prix will also be preceded by qualifying at 7:30 a.m. local time (5:30 a.m. ET). The qualifying session scheduled for Saturday was rained out and rain is forecast constantly throughout Sunday. F1 teams have wet weather tyres, but too much rain can cause waterlogging and render the track unusable. On Saturday, the rain was so intense at the Interlagos circuit that it was impossible to compete in qualifying.

It is unclear what the starting lineup for the race will be if qualifying cannot take place on Sunday morning.

Saturday’s sprint race went ahead as planned and was won by Lando Norris ahead of his McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri. Piastri led for most of the race before being ordered to let his teammate pass ahead of a virtual safety car for Nico Hülkenberg’s stranded car.

That VSC caused a restart midway through the final lap that Max Verstappen attempted to jump to pass Piastri. Verstappen was overly eager and exceeded the minimum delta time between him and Piastri before the VSC ended. Verstappen finished third, but was relegated to fourth place after the race due to a five-second penalty.

That penalty cost Verstappen a point. Norris scored eight points to Verstappen’s five in the sprint and is now 44 points ahead of Norris with four Grand Prix races and one sprint left this season.
