Subdued Hamilton Praises Ferrari After 'Tricky' Weekend
- Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton started Sunday's Brazilian Grand Prix from the back of the grid after accumulating multiple power unit penalties throughout the weekend at Interlagos.
- Following reports of "strange vibrations" during Saturday's final practice, Ferrari replaced the entire power unit, triggering automatic grid penalties that relegated Hamilton to the rear.
- Despite the challenging start from 20th, Hamilton climbed to ninth place during the rain-affected race, though rear tyre overheating and a late-race communication error cost him additional positions.
- Mercedes clinched the constructors' championship while Hamilton slipped to fourth in the drivers' standings behind new world champion Kimi Antonelli of Mercedes and Red Bull's Max Verstappen.
- Marking his 400th grand prix start, Hamilton competed at a venue where Formula One recently confirmed a contract extension guaranteeing the Brazilian Grand Prix remains on the calendar until 2035.
