Did someone say there was a Grand Prix this weekend?!
How can you tell when the championship has already been decided? Late build up threads ...
Only two races remain in 2019, but we've saved one of the best for last. The historic, iconic, dramatic Autódromo José Carlos Pace - better known as Interlagos.
The championship may well be decided, but this isn't some mid-table, nothing to play for, dead-rubber! There's scores to settle, and prizes to be won ... like 3rd in the drivers championship (invite to the gala!), and 6th and 8th in the constructors.
Is your favourite team or driver already 'on the beach'?
Or are they 'up for the fight'?
We'll soon find out ... welcome to Round 20 (twenty!!) of the 2019 FIA Formula One World Championship.
The Circuit
The iconic Senna S ... the plunge towards Descido do Lago (Lake Descent) ... the twists and turns before ISTHATGLOCK? Juncao, then a final drive for the line. 70 seconds of drama and history.
There's only one man to take you around ...
Tyre selection
A step harder versus 2018 from Pirelli, slightly conservative from Mercedes and McLaren, but it should be a standard one-stop.
Schedule
I can't make fancy tables like Marklar Damn you South America ...
If you live in on >> that side of the globe it will be in the evening / night
If you live on << that side of the globe it will be in the morning / afternoon
Weather
Small threat of rain Friday, but otherwise dry and mild ...
Talking points
Will Hamilton keep his foot on the gas after his title win?
Can Ferrari fight back after their mysterious loss of pace? (Leclerc has a 10 place grid drop)
Will Max and Albon finally have a clean weekend for intra-team comparison?
Who will triumph in Racing Point vs Toro Rosso?
Why isn't Brazil the real finale?
