What happened: Rafael Camara lines up 11th for his first Formula 1 start in front of a home crowd at Interlagos. Rain was falling on the circuit minutes before the cars left the pits.

Why it matters: The Haas rookie took over Esteban Ocon's seat for the final four rounds of the season, ahead of his full-time 2027 seat. He was reprimanded in practice for impeding Charles Leclerc.

By the numbers: Starting grid: Lando Norris P1, George Russell P2, Kimi Antonelli P3, Charles Leclerc P4, Liam Lawson P5. Camara starts P11.

What to watch: Watch how Camara copes with a mix of wet and dry running over the race distance. Three rounds remain after Brazil.
