Sao Paulo Grand Prix 2022 start time: F1 practice, qualifying, race schedule on TV
Your complete guide to the Sao Paulo Grand Prix 2022 start time, plus full TV schedule for race weekend, including practice, qualifying and the GP itself.
The Sao Paulo Grand Prix marks the penultimate race of the Formula 1 season with a handful of key battles set to soak up your attention in the weeks to come.
Max Verstappen is already crowned king of the grid and Red Bull has already triumphed in the constructors championship, but that won't extinguish the fire-fight going on for second place in each standings.
Verstappen's teammate Sergio Pérez leads Ferrari star Charles Leclerc by five points going into the final two races of the season and will be desperate to cling onto his position.
Leclerc is fighting on two fronts with Ferrari still not totally secure as the 'best of the rest' in the constructors championship after Red Bull. Brazil will go a long way towards firming up their position – or blowing the race wide open.
RadioTimes.com brings you the complete guide to the Sao Paulo Grand Prix 2022 including start time, dates and TV details, as well as our analysis of the big storylines to come.

Sao Paulo Grand Prix preview
1. Driver standings
Pérez heads into the penultimate race with 280 points to his name. He has only won two races this term, but has operated admirably in the shadow of Verstappen, a generational talent in an F1 cockpit.
Leclerc is the only realistic challenger for second place, but if Pérez finishes ahead of him in Brazil, the odds will be firmly stacked against Leclerc from stealing silver.
The next closest fight in the top 10 sees Carlos Sainz trail Lewis Hamilton by four points with two outings to go.
2. Constructor standings
Red Bull are riding high with 696 points, just 69 points short of the highest constructor tally since the system was overhauled in 2010.
A pair of Red Bull 1-2s would see them break the record set by Mercedes in 2016 and cement their place as the most dominant team in a single season.
You absolutely know Christian Horner has the record on his mind, whatever he says about it.
3. The sprint race
The final sprint race of the season could actually be one of the most interesting. Earlier in the season, with lower stakes, drivers may be reluctant to push the boundaries in the sprint races.
However, with just two races to go and a host of teams slipping away from their rivals ahead, a few drivers may just be tempted to go all-out in the sprint race.
