The F1 calendar 2021<\/a> has reached boiling point with Max Verstappen leading Lewis Hamilton by 19 points ahead of the Sao Paulo Grand Prix at Interlagos in Brazil.<\/p>\n The Red Bull superstar was comprehensively out-qualified by both Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas but a spectacular start saw Verstappen leapfrog both Mercedes drivers into Turn 1.<\/p>\n Verstappen\u2019s ninth win of the season has widened the gap at the top, and another victory could be enough to fend off Hamilton for his maiden world title.<\/p>\n Elsewhere, a similarly sized gap separates Bottas and Verstappen\u2019s Red Bull team-mate Sergio Perez, who enjoyed a podium result in his homecoming race \u2013 his third consecutive third-place finish.<\/p>\n Lando Norris could yet gate-crash the top pack should he enjoy the final few tracks of the 2021 season to round off a superb campaign from both him and his McLaren team, while Ferrari are also aiming to finish a largely impressive season with a flourish.<\/p>\n RadioTimes.com<\/a> brings you the complete guide to the Sao Paulo Grand Prix 2021 including start time, dates and TV details, as well as exclusive analysis from Sky Sports F1 commentator Crofty.<\/p>\n The Sao Paulo Grand Prix takes place on Sunday 14th November 2021<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n Check out our full F1 2021 calendar<\/span> for the list of dates and upcoming races.<\/span><\/p>\n The race begins at 5<\/strong>pm<\/strong> UK time on Sunday 14th November 2021.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We\u2019ve included the full schedule for the rest of the weekend, including practice and qualifying times below.<\/span><\/p>\n Friday 12th November<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n From 3pm on Sky Sports F1<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Practice 1 \u2013 3:30pm<\/span><\/p>\n Qualifying \u2013 7pm<\/span><\/p>\n Saturday 13th November<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n From 2:45pm on Sky Sports F1<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Practice 2 \u2013 3pm<\/span><\/p>\n Sprint qualifying \u2013 7:30pm<\/span><\/p>\n Sunday 14th November<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n From 3:30pm on Sky Sports F1<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Race \u2013 5pm<\/span><\/p> The Sao Paulo Grand Prix will air live on Sky Sports F1<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n All races will be shown live on Sky Sport<\/span>s<\/span> F1<\/a> and Main Event<\/a> throughout the season.<\/span><\/p>\n Sky customers can add individual channels for just \u00a318 per month or add the complete sports package to their deal for just \u00a325 per month.<\/span><\/p>\n Existing Sky Sports customers can live stream the race via the Sky Go app on a variety of devices.<\/span><\/p>\n You can watch the Grand Prix with a NOW <\/span>Day Membership<\/span><\/a>\u00a0for \u00a39.99 or a\u00a0Monthly Membership<\/span><\/a>\u00a0for \u00a333.99, all without signing up to a contract.<\/span><\/p>\n NOW can be streamed through a computer or apps found on most smart TVs, phones and consoles.

I think if Max takes the lead at the start of the race, I can\u2019t see, on current form, Mercedes getting him. He could easily leave Interlagos with more than one race win advantage. He\u2019s led 11 of the 14 rounds of the world championship since Monaco.<\/p>\n I just can\u2019t see a way that we leave Brazil with Lewis close enough. I don\u2019t want to say it\u2019s over because I never want to say something\u2019s over but it\u2019s just looking improbable at the moment for Lewis and for Mercedes and, to be honest, Red Bull and Max \u2013 they deserve the championship this year. There\u2019s no question that they have been the best driver and best car.<\/p>\n DC:\u00a0<\/strong>I think Ferrari are going to nail that third spot. McLaren have fallen away just at the wrong time and Ferrari look very good for picking up a decent haul of points. Carlos Sainz is on 10 consecutive races in terms of point-scoring at the moment, I think it\u2019s the longest active streak on the grid. Charles Leclerc just looks like the Charles Leclerc that we know can turn in decent results.<\/p>\n As for the rest of the cars, they\u2019re all developed now, they\u2019re not going to be doing much more to them. They are where they are, the rest, although it was really lovely to see Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel have strong races in Mexico as well, to prove there\u2019s life in the old dog yet, especially with Kimi because we\u2019ve only got four more races to enjoy him.<\/p>\n DC: <\/strong>Interlagos is one of my favourite tracks to go to \u2013 I absolutely love it. The crowd are brilliant, the track itself is phenomenal, we\u2019ve got a sprint coming up this weekend, which always adds to the drama in the race, if not the sprint itself. Like Mexico last week, we\u2019ve missed Brazil.<\/p>\n We\u2019ve missed going to a place where motorsport is very much at the heart of Sao Paulo, and you know that track deserves to be on the calendar. As much as people want to move it to Rio, I hope that doesn\u2019t happen because I absolutely love Interlagos. It\u2019s seen a lot of things, a lot of titles decided and while we won\u2019t see it decided this weekend, I firmly expect Red Bull to put another little indent on the championship trophy.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re looking for something else to watch, check out our\u00a0<\/b>TV Guid<\/b>e<\/strong><\/span><\/a> or visit our Sport<\/a> hub.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/body><\/html>\n By Michael Potts Published: Thursday, 11 November 2021 at 12:00 am The F1 calendar 2021 has reached boiling point with Max Verstappen leading Lewis Hamilton by 19 points ahead of the Sao Paulo Grand Prix at Interlagos in Brazil.
