Live: Piastri starts 10th with teammate Norris on pole in Brazil

The drivers' championship has been decided, but the final four races of the 2026 Formula 1 World Championship still offer plenty of opportunity for points to be scored and constructors standings to be decided. Oscar Piastri will be starting Sunday's São Paulo Grand Prix from 10th place, while his McLaren teammate Lando Norris is on pole position.

Kimi Antonelli, the world champion, experienced a mishap early on when he went off the track in slippery conditions. Despite finding an escape route, it took him some time to return to the pits. The rain that affected qualifying yesterday continued throughout the race, adding to the challenging conditions.
