Formula 1 Brazilian GP is set to take place this Sunday at the Interlagos circuit. It is going to be a thrilling showcase with the Max vs Hamilton battle heating up. Find out how to watch the Brazilian F1 Grand Prix live on TV, or any other device from anywhere, even for free.
F1 2021 is heading to the end of the season with the Brazilian GP set for this weekend in Sao Paulo. Red Bull’s Max Verstappen will begin this Grand Prix as the F1 2021 Drivers Championship leader after winning the Mexican GP last week. He might claim the title this week, given he manages to be the victor.
His arch-enemy, Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton will follow him while lacking 19 points in the standings. Lewis has already been given a five-place grid penalty for a disqualification this Saturday. This means that he isn’t going to start higher than sixth even when he manages to win the Sprint after immense efforts.
Regardless of that, the Brazilian GP will be an event worth watching. The 1,70,000 tickets have already been sold out. Now you can only watch it live on your screen. Formula One has made sure that the broadcast is available in every country of the world.

What shall you expect from the Brazilian F1 Grand Prix?
The Brazilian F1 Grand Prix which is the Round 19 of 22, also known as the Formula 1 Heineken Grande Prêmio De São Paulo 2021 will be an electrifying event. The Interlagos holds some extremely dramatic events in history like Ayrton Senna winning in 1991 despite sticking in the sixth gear, and Martin Brundle escaping death in 1984.
Saturday’s Sprint saw Valtteri Bottas edge past Max Verstappen to take the pole position. On the other hand, Hamilton ended the sprint in the 5th Position after starting back from 20th place. However, he does have a 5 place grid penalty that will see him start the race from 10th position. Carlos Sainz and Checo Perez are set to start from 3rd and 4th position respectively.

Another man who could be the best underdog at Interlagos will be Sebastian Vettel from Aston Martin. He had won the most number of races at this circuit after claiming victory in 2010, 2013, and 2017. If Hamilton is able to win this Sunday, he will tie Vettel’s record at the Interlagos circuit.
The Max Verstappen vs Lewis Hamilton is one of the best battles that we have seen in the history of Formula One. It always sets the stakes very high. The same will be this Sunday. Don’t forget to watch the Brazilian F1 Grand Prix live at any cost.
