Lando Norris posted the fastest time in the opening practice session for the São Paulo Grand Prix on Friday, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport. Andrea Kimi Antonelli followed in second, with Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton next on the timesheet.

Autosprint carried live coverage of Friday's running at the Brazilian round. The session was also marked by an interruption for Ferrari, as Corriere della Sera reports that Dino Beganovic, standing in for Charles Leclerc, was called back to the pits because of a problem with his car.

The weekend is the São Paulo Grand Prix, with broadcast and streaming details published by alVolante. ANSA notes that Antonelli is running a helmet tribute to Ayrton Senna and that Mercedes is chasing the constructors' title.

With only the headline results available, further gaps between the front runners and the rest of the field were not disclosed in the reporting summarised here.

Watch for the second Friday practice session, where teams typically shift toward longer runs and race preparation, and for updates on the Ferrari repair ahead of the rest of the weekend.
