The second practice session of the 20th round of the 2026 Formula 1 World Championship at the Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace Interlagos served up another masterclass from the newly crowned world champion. Kimi Antonelli displayed zero signs of complacency following his recent title triumph, stamping his absolute authority across Friday proceedings in Brazil.
Antonelli secured the top spot in FP2 with a comfortable 0.253-second margin ahead of McLaren's Lando Norris. The gap established by the leading Mercedes over the chasing pack accurately mirrored the competitive hierarchy witnessed throughout the 2026 season so far.
Behind Norris, Max Verstappen and George Russell were tightly bunched within a mere 0.020-second window, while Oscar Piastri slotted into fifth position for McLaren just fractions behind. However, Verstappen endured a frustrating afternoon marked by ongoing power unit complaints and a late-session steering issue that confined him prematurely to the Red Bull garage.
Meanwhile, Lewis Hamilton led the Ferrari charge in sixth, outpacing teammate Charles Leclerc. Leclerc narrowly avoided a high-speed collision involving F1 debutant Rafael Camara at the final kink, an incident that drew post-session investigation from race control.
