Il Brazilian GP It turns out to be a crucial event for the World Cup F1: clarifies the balance of power on the track, shows who was able to seize the moment and who instead let it slip away.
Lando Norris dominated the weekend from the first minute to the last corner. The victory allowed him to extend his lead in the title race. Behind him, Andrea Kimi Antonelli took Mercedes to the podium with a solid performance, and Max Verstappen finished third after a spectacular comeback from the pitlane.
Let's see now how the changes Fanta F1 odds after the Brazilian GP in Interlagos.
Brazilian GP F1 Fantasy Odds: Who's Rising?
Lando Norris
The Briton dominated the Brazilian weekend with a flawless performance, leading the race From start to finish, he never lost control. Always in command, he managed his pace, tires, and strategy with absolute clarity, supported by a perfectly synchronized McLaren. It was a victory constructed with precision and maturity, confirming his exceptional form.
This show of strength comes at the end of a clear growth path. Norris has been able to respond to the difficult moments of the season, working on himself and improving in every area, from starts to mental management. The driver who a year ago would have suffered blows of bad luck today displays a new solidity, the fruit of awareness and confidence in his own abilities.
Let's avoid talking about a "mental transformation," but it's important to acknowledge his technical and psychological progress. At Interlagos, where he had struggled in the past, he demonstrated that he had overcome his weaknesses.
Whoever bet on him was right, not like us who had him recommended!

Andrea Kimi Antonelli
Here too, we must acknowledge our own misjudgment. Interlagos, a new circuit for him, could have put him in trouble. Instead, Antonelli once again demonstrated his brilliance on unfamiliar tracks, posting the best weekend of his young Formula 1 career.
From the Sprint to the main race, he was the undisputed star: he managed his tires intelligently, kept his cool in crucial moments, and earned a fully deserved podium. His precision, composure, and ability to read the race confirm him as one of the most solid and mature young drivers in the championship.
Twice on the front row, twice second, always ahead of Russell. He was also fortunate to escape the contact with Piastri almost unscathed, but his final resistance against Verstappen's resurgence showed extraordinary character and clarity.
A reversal that was unthinkable just a few weeks ago.
NEW VALUE: 18 YAW
Max Verstappen
Verstappen finished third with a remarkable comeback after starting from pitlane. His race was further complicated by a puncture early on, forcing him to pit early. Despite this, with medium tires and a lighter setup developed by Red Bull during the night between Saturday and Sunday, the Dutchman set an impressive pace, climbing to the top positions by mid-race.
In the final stages he threatened Antonelli for second place, almost overtaking him but without being able to complete it. A very high level performance that demonstrates his ability to extract the maximum from a Red Bull that had been inconsistent throughout the weekend: decent in the sprint, terrible in qualification (where a risky setup choice got him eliminated in Q1) and difficult in the race.
Although the World Championship is now mathematically compromised and Red Bull found the right set-up too late, Verstappen has once again confirmed his talent with a champion-like comeback that strengthens his status as number one.

Brazilian GP F1 Fantasy Odds: Who's Going Down?
Yuki tsunoda
Another complicated weekend: the Japanese driver was never able to find the right feeling with the grip of the track, compromising the entire weekend.
Eliminated in Q1 in both qualifying sessions. In the race, his chances of a comeback vanished on the first lap when he spun Stroll while attempting to pass Colapinto, receiving a 10-second penalty. The situation worsened in the pits, where a mechanic touched the car before the penalty expired, relegating him to last place.
Red Bull hasn't made a decision yet for 2026. While the others are convincing, Tsunoda confirms his current struggles, far from the good performance he had in Mexico.
Its price is falling and a turning point is needed to reverse the trend.
NEW VALUE: 13 YAW
Charles Leclerc
In light of the outcome of the Grand Prix, its stock price inevitably drops.
He qualified well, securing a third-place finish in the challenging conditions of Q3. In the Sprint Race, he managed to overtake Alonso, finishing fifth in a challenging Ferrari.
In the race, he had a good start and restart, but was eliminated by the collision between Piastri and Antonelli: a broken suspension ended his race prematurely. Despite being on the outside in a risky situation with three cars side by side, his positioning was correct and he was simply unlucky.
Brazil continues to fail to bring him luck: a podium finish was not an unattainable goal.
NEW VALUE: 34 YAW
Lewis Hamilton
It was a difficult weekend, consistently trailing Leclerc and eliminated in Q2 in both qualifying sessions. A strong first lap in the sprint allowed him to finish seventh, but on Sunday the race got off to a bad start: after being hit by Sainz at the first corner, he made a serious mistake, rear-ending Colapinto on the straight. The impact severely damaged the floor and broke the front wing, which became lodged under the car.
He continued to serve the penalty with repeated pit stops and radio complaints about the balance of the SF-25, until retiring on lap 39. Starting thirteenth in qualifying exposed him to the risks of the large group, where it takes very little to run into problems.
A frustrating weekend where experience and talent weren't enough. And the stock price dropped.
