Interlagos delivered another thriller for the 2026 São Paulo Grand Prix. McLaren's Lando Norris mastered changing conditions to triumph, while Max Verstappen’s charge from the back row stole the show. From intermediate gambles to pit-lane pirouettes, here is how we rate the performance of all 22 drivers at the Autodomo José Carlos Pace.
Valtteri Bottas, Cadillac (DNS) – N/A
A stripped right-rear wheel nut on the grid condemned Bottas to the role of spectator before the formation lap even began. Cruel luck for the Finn... again.
Lance Stroll, Aston Martin (DNF) – 5/10
Stroll put together a very respectable 30 laps in the midfield, quietly keeping out of trouble while struggling with a misbehaving Honda power unit. The engine eventually gave up the ghost entirely, cutting short a respectable recovery attempt through no fault of his own.
