The 2025 Formula 1 Brazil Grand Prix ended in disaster for Ferrari, while Lando Norris seized a golden opportunity to extend his championship lead. Both Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton were forced to retire: the Monegasque driver was caught in a dramatic incident during the first restart, for which he was not at fault. Hamilton, on the other hand, first suffered a rear-end collision from Carlos Sainz and then lost his front wing after contact with Franco Colapinto, leaving his SF-25 unable to continue.
The Formula 1 World Championship now heads into its decisive final stretch, with three crucial races remaining. After Brazil, the Circus moves to Las Vegas to kick off the last triple-header of the season, followed by races in Qatar and the grand finale in Abu Dhabi. These events will ultimately determine both the Drivers’ and Constructors’ Championships.
After Brazil, Lando Norris, Oscar Piastri, and Max Verstappen remain the only drivers still in contention for the drivers’ title. Meanwhile, Mercedes, Ferrari, and Red Bull continue to battle for second place in the Constructors’ standings.
