When is the 2023 F1 Brazilian Grand Prix?
This year’s race, officially called the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, takes place on Sunday 5 November, and is broadcast on ESPN2 at 12:00pm ET from Interlagos.
This is a sprint format weekend, so qualifying takes place on Friday after a single practice session. The sprint event happens on Saturday after a ‘sprint shootout’ qualifying.
Which channels show F1 on TV in the USA?
All Formula 1 races will be shown live on U.S. TV by either ESPN, ESPN2 or ABC this year, as well as being streamed live or on-demand via its digital platform.
To make sure you don’t miss any of the action across practice, qualifying or racing – which will vary across its channels during the season – here’s how to tune in this weekend.

What happened in last year's F1 Brazilian Grand Prix?
George Russell scored his maiden F1 victory, leading a Mercedes 1-2 with Lewis Hamilton. Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz finished third, while Max Verstappen could only finish sixth after an early clash with the second Ferrari of Charles Leclerc.
His race was further soured by him refusing to obey team orders to let team-mate Sergio Perez past him.
