Nobody is gonna talk about another super shit performance made by the FIA marshalls? What a Pontius Pilate they do yesterday with all the possible sanctions.
About constructor championship, yes it seems like for Mclaren suits better because is one less race, but also they can have missed the chance of sealed the tittle considering how better they were against Ferrari in this track.

Before the race, I expected Verstappen would have a fantastic performance, but I didn’t think he could actually win it. With this victory in Brazil, we can now say that Verstappen has secured his 4th world championship. Also, congratulations to goodpunt for his double win!

A magnificent performance from Verstappen to clinch the Drivers title.
Everything went his way in this race but he took advantage of it in a way in which a champion does.
Both McLaren and Ferrari won't be happy with the constructors points, but with 1 less race to go it is McLaren that is happier with this outcome. Ferrari needed this race to go differently for them.

I have to give it to him. Really really wanted Norris to win, to keep the title exciting, I even thought Leclerc would have a big chance I guess many of us also did but if you see how he won, from so low on the grid, to claim the lead just halfway, who can say he doesn't deserve it? Like you said, the chances happened just directly for him but it takes a champion to take those chances.
3 more races to go, and I believe the last 2 are straightforward

Yes superlong and in some ways boring weekend, so many changes in the way, and so much rain and bad decissions from everybody from FIA teams,drivers,etc.
When i see the rain i was hoping to see a super fun race with changes of tyres and some crazy overtakes results and strategy but this happen in a non so good way.
Verstappen today shows why he deserves to be the champion and not Norris, Norris today was again "Blando" instead of Lando. The word Blando in sapnish is soft.

Norris cannot convert poles into race wins and that itself is enough to not be a champions. However , even if I don't admire Norris , he at least tasted what is necessary to become a champion and hopefully he will learn a lot and comeback stronger because it's not easy mentally to start P1 from 6 or 7 races and only being able to convert 1 into a win.
Max is truly a genius on rain and he proved it in a majestic way today and also I think he secured his title with this win.
It is one of the days where Norris was absolutely not at fault and the only one to blame is McLaren who followed the wrong move of Mercedes. This mean that they greatly compromised the race there especially as they were not careful to notice that when they enter the pit stop it read in all monitors that Virtual Safety Car ending. Another blow of worse luck was the red flag which gave the possibility to people like Verstappen a free change on tires. This was it pure pure bad luck for McLaren and one of the rare cases where Norris was not at all at fault.

Congrats to hsh1 goodpunt for winning most points in Superbru.
Thanks notblox1 
Very much needed points for me after winning the wooden spoon in Mexico
Very eventful race Verstappen's odds for the win must have been very tasty.

I cant believe Verstappen won this crazy race in impossible weather conditions! 
Norris was my number one pick to win but I think he is not that good in wet conditions, and he missed a big chance today.
But biggest surprise for me was Ocon and Gasly with Alpine team being on podium.
Congrats to hsh1 goodpunt for winning most points in Superbru.

Damn, this race weekend was such long, with so many events and chaos. First Verstappen win since round 10 in Barcelona. Winning race after starting race from P17 and also both Alpne drivers on the podium - such things only can happen in rain. While Mclaren, they made bad decision to pit Norris just before red flag was shown. But even without red flag, it would be bad decision. They had to put him full wet tyres - there was just too much water on track for green tyres. In races like this champions is decided.
Well there are quite some incompetent drivers on the grid and the most noticeable of all of them is definitely Stroll, he completely lost the rear of his car and crashed in the formation lap, how can someone crash on a formation lap is beyond my understanding but I believe papa Stroll is there to keep his son in the seat totally undeserved compared to many other good drivers. Look what he did, just delayed the start for another 15 minutes most likely taking the time they did another kind of formation lap and as I said the lottery has already started in this race, especially since heavy rain is expected during the end of the race.
Stroll not did just crashed car on formation lap, he also stuck in gravel when he tried to return to the track. But as long as papa Stroll owns the team, his seat is safe.

Colapinto managed to get his car ready, everyone except Albon, some incredible results are coming for this race, Max (16!?) makes the end of the season interesting,... the impossible for LN does not seem so improbable.
Max 0 pts today...!?

Verstappen is completely right about his complaints. In the sprint race and qualifying official decisions were scandalous. For example in Q2 they meaninglessly waited for 40 seconds to raise the red flag. Despite everything I think Verstappen can fight for podium.

I frankly can't remember a great Sprint Race since they introduce them and that is why Sprint Races will be removed from next year if I remember correctly and it's a wise decision to do so.
Yea McLaren has the best car right now but with Norris not being able to convert pole into wins I won't rely on them yet. However , they seems already to be Constructors Champions and only big mistakes or DNF could change this outcome in favor of Ferrari.
Waht? This is first time when I hear this. They already announced Sprint calendar for 2025, we will have 6 Sprint Races next season:Yea McLaren has the best car right now but with Norris not being able to convert pole into wins I won't rely on them yet.

Maybe you confused with removed point for fastest lap in the race?
Well, I can remember few good sprint races, but I'm still not sure that it's something what is needed for F1
WTF why remove point for fastest lap? Its literally like a yellow cap to me, if I can't win something in the main league, I'll at least try to be the fastest this round, get a consolation prize
Nobody likes sprint, at least I don't even pay attention to it, does anybody in this pool really care for it?
Norris will win today. I feel it in my fingers
I think Norris can win this as that Russell who only is in F1 to make trouble to others and don't fight for anything, an opportunist who gave it all today and got second place which is not bad yet not removed the three points I got with Norris and Early Brew Points in this lottery race that is going to be, if we saw so many drivers get out of track the same will be in the race, we got like 4 red flags in here in the official qualifying and a Safety Car to be in should be an easy sure bet to get now, it would be a very good bet despite the low odds for Safety Car to come in.
Other than that as I said this race is a lottery and no one can predict correctly the top 3 so I exclude this as an option unless something magical happens.

Verstappen demoted, heavy rain in Sao Paulo, and qualifying postponed, this all promises chaotic weekend race in Formula 1.
I have no idea who is going to win in this conditions but Norris have better chances than others.
In BSFL I played on team Ferrari to win most points and on Sportsbet website I played on team McLaren, I have to play smart and win something

Of course I doubt the Ferrari winning most points here, especially if it is a rainy weekend as the Ferrari drivers are not well known for driving quite better than others in such conditions, the rain clearly favors the Redbull with Verstappen and Hamilton who are really good drivers in the rain, so based on this conditions like the Sky sports UK commentators said, the only team cursing such conditions should be McLaren as they were the fastest team on a dry track so in the rain I doubt they would do well. It would definitely be a chaotic race tomorrow if such conditions persist and the rain does not go away. Well in the pool here I played my picks based on dry track as it was quite dry during the sprint so I am not changing anything exactly because anything can be happening tomorrow, they postponed it to 9 AM Brazil time tomorrow which should be 1 PM for Europe or something similar before the race starts in 6 PM in European time.

So, we are watching how it's raining for almost 2 hours already and safety car is going around the track. I understand that safety is above everything, but still, such situations sucks. There is many better ways how to spend Saturday evening than watching how nothing happens.
Qualifying is postponed and will happen tomorrow. But weather forecast doesn't shows nothing good, tomorrow it will be without rain only in morning hours.

Well Sprint races are becoming boring. With high expectattions but nothing really happen in the end.
Seems clearly now Mclaren have the best car in this track, and Verstaeppn is not so far behind. Ferrari drop a little bit but lets see if they can find something before sunday to keep up the pace.

Of course sprint races are not good as they are just a chunk and they want to show that it is all about the drivers, the tire management and everything to be done in this chunk so to get more spectacular, the fact is that this has been boring and not meet the expectations that FIA created it for.
Verstappen not only is not so far behind yet in the final laps of the sprint he was so near Piastri that only the Virtual Safety made them secure 1-2 for McLaren. He went and got 5 place grid penalty because he will change many things for tomorrow and seeing that most likely a Safety Car in here is assured it means that he is gambling it all, he believes in these changes int he power unit and I hope it makes a good race for us to watch, I see already making my picks altered before the qualifying has even started because of the rain, it will start 20 minutes from now.
