FP1 is scheduled for 08:30, while FP2 takes place at 12:00, always at Brasília time (GMT -3). The sessions will be crucial for drivers and teams to find the best setup for the urban track, where any mistake is usually severely punished by the guard-rails.
Brazilian Gabriel Bortoleto, an Audi driver, will be in action throughout the weekend. The São Paulo native is competing in his second season in Formula 1 and is practically racing at home, as he resides in the Principality of Monaco.
