Max Verstappen approaches one of his preferred tracks this weekend, aware that the Formula 1 championship could be significantly affected at Interlagos. The Red Bull driver trails Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri by 36 points as he enters the race near Sao Paulo, with only three races left after Brazil. However, with rain predicted once again, Verstappen's fans believe the weather could work to his advantage. 

"Hopefully it rains," remarked Nelson Piquet Jr., brother of Verstappen’s partner Kelly, during the Pelas Pistas podcast. "The forecast currently indicates Sunday will be dry, but we're just speculating. For me, it absolutely has to rain. It must! That would make things really thrilling."

Sergio Perez, who faced challenges in his F1 career after a tough season alongside Verstappen in 2024, also commended the Dutch driver’s resilience. "For me, Max is the standout of the year. He has mesmerized everyone by taking on the McLaren duo. He’s the reason fans tune into Formula 1," the Mexican stated. "He and his team have managed to turn this season around. I believe Verstappen deserves the title most among the three because he’s racing phenomenally."

F1 legend Gerhard Berger expects Verstappen to remain competitive in the championship. "He has maintained the high standards of recent seasons—very fast and with minimal errors," he told Corriere dello Sport. "I mentioned Senna, who was unbeatable, but in terms of driving, Verstappen is fitting that description. He can do it, and I hope to witness clean battles until the very end."

Red Bull advisor Dr. Helmut Marko also maintains that winning the title is still achievable. "We believe in it. We have determination and a small chance," he said to RTL. "We pulled it off in the last race in 2010, again in 2012, and in 2021, Verstappen became world champion on the final lap. Now it’s about having nerves of steel and avoiding any mistakes. The outcome will depend on the details." "We're currently speculating, but for me, it really needs to rain."
