The FIA has announced that qualifying for the Formula 1 Brazilian Grand Prix will now be held at 07:30 local time on Sunday morning, and the race will start at 12:30 local time. Qualifying on Saturday was postponed due to heavy rainfall in Sao Paulo, making the track undriveable. The decision was made to delay qualifying until Sunday morning to maximize the chances of completing both qualifying and the race. More rain is expected on Sunday, so the early session times are aimed at ensuring the events can take place. The FIA and Formula 1 believe that these time changes are necessary for the safety of all involved. They appreciate the patience of fans, drivers, teams, and staff, and aim to provide an exciting event on Sunday.
