Norris masters changing rain to win Brazil Grand Prix for McLaren
A shuffled grid and changing rain made Brazil’s Grand Prix one of the season’s most entertaining races, despite the drivers’ championship already being decided. Lando Norris showed the pace that won him the 2025 title, managing the tricky conditions to take victory for McLaren.
Norris started from pole but was passed by Kimi Antonelli, then overtook Liam Lawson and regained the lead after Antonelli spun. Mercedes drivers struggled to keep their tyres in the right temperature range: George Russell spun after a pit stop, while Antonelli spun twice and finished fifth. Mercedes nevertheless secured the Constructors’ Championship; Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen had started 20th and 21st, respectively.
In short
- Norris won a rain-affected Brazilian Grand Prix.
- Antonelli spun twice after taking the lead.
- Mercedes secured the Constructors’ Championship.
