Reigning Formula 1 champion Kimi Antonelli and McLaren driver Lando Norris exchanged the fastest lap times during Friday practice for the Sao Paulo Grand Prix at Interlagos.
Antonelli, who secured his first world title earlier this season, set the early pace before Norris responded with a quicker lap later in the session. The pair finished the day separated by less than a tenth of a second, signaling a close battle ahead of qualifying.
The session was the first of three practice sessions before Sunday's race, with teams focusing on tire degradation and setup adjustments for the anti-clockwise circuit.
