At the Brazilian Grand Prix, there was a huge controversy regarding the rear wings. After the qualifying session, Red Bull’s Max Verstappen inspected the rear wing of Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes, which saw him pay a hefty fine.
Now after the Sprint race at Interlagos which saw Hamilton finish fifth, his race engineer, Peter Bonnington warned the Knight about inspecting their rivals’ cars.

Hamilton still faces major obstacles for the Brazilian Grand Prix
The Knight drove extremely well from being last on the grid to taking the chequered flag in fifth place. However, Hamilton is yet to overcome the problems that await him for Sunday’s race.
The Mercedes driver will have to face a five-place grid penalty for changing a component in his engine. This means the Mercedes driver will see the five-red lights from tenth on the grid.
Nevertheless, Hamilton is optimistic for Sunday’s race, after showing impressive skills in the sprint race, he has faith that he can do it once again once the lights go out on Sunday.
Now Verstappen has a 21-point lead over the British driver and aims to extend it in tomorrow’s race. While Hamilton is hoping to bring his A-game to Interlagos and prevent the Dutch driver from doing so.
With the much-awaited Brazilian Grand Prix just hours away, what are your predictions for the race? Let us know in the comments below.
