Formula 1 drivers Lewis Hamilton, Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen have been handed grid penalties for the upcoming Brazilian Grand Prix, according to reports from the circuit on Saturday.
The three championship contenders will start the race from lower positions than they qualified after stewards imposed penalties for separate infractions. Specific details regarding the nature of the penalties and the number of grid positions each driver will drop were not immediately disclosed.
The Brazilian Grand Prix at Interlagos is a critical round in the 2026 Formula 1 World Championship, with the penalties potentially reshaping the front-row battle and championship standings.
