Qualifying tests for the Brazilian Grand Prix were never completed, as the extreme weather conditions that hit the Interlagos circuit, led the marshals to halt proceedings for good shortly before the Q3 finale. Until that time, Mr Max Verstappen he had the fastest time, resulting in his eleventh place pole position in this season.
However, there was almost much… worse than the disaster that broke out in the greater Sao Paulo area, as, according to Brazilian reports spectators’ lives were endangered.
Specifically, several friends of the crown jewel of motorsport were injuredfortunately lightly, after collapse of a section of the stands of the track. The intensity of the winds was so strong that it toppled a part of the roof, causing panic among the spectators.
The images and videos that have come to light of the… nature’s fury that hit the track are shocking…
