Brazil Grand Prix Preview: Hamilton Looks To Prove A Point & Go Back To Back
November 16, 2019
Lewis Hamilton may have won his sixth drivers’ title but he won’t let that stop him winning in Brazil.
This year’s drivers champion, Lewis Hamilton is certain that he won’t lose focus ahead of Brazil and even stated that he can be “more aggressive” now that he has wrapped up the title.
Team-mate Valteri Bottas will be looking to make it back to back wins after taking out the USA GP in superb fashion.
Ferrari will look to redeem themselves after a horror weekend in the USA GP where Vettel suffered suspension failure which caused a DNF after qualifying in second place.

KEY QUOTE
“I will definitely give it a go, for sure. I will push as much as I can, as always, but we know we won’t be in the top 10.
“For sure but I’ll push for the maximum anyway.”
– Charles Leclerc
OUR PICK
Max Verstappen has always performed well in Brazil and looked good in the USA despite damaging his wing and floor early in the race.
Price: $3.50
VALUE PICK
Daniel Ricciardo has lacked pace in qualifying recently but has found another gear when it has come to race pace.
He currently sits at $3.60 but if you’re willing to wait and see if he lacks the qualifying pace again he will surely blow out.
