Formula 1 will return to Brazil for the 2023 Sao Paulo Grand Prix on Sunday as the season end is approaching.
This weekend's Grand Prix is irrelevant for the 2023 title race as Red Bull's Dutch driver Max Verstappen has already won it after a sprint race in Qatar earlier in October.
Verstappen secured the Formula 1 title for the third year in a row.
The 23-round season will end with the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on Nov. 26.
The 71-lap Sao Paulo Grand Prix will be held at the 4.3-kilometer (2.67-mile) Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace in Brazil on Sunday after the qualifying and sprint sessions.
Last weekend in Mexico City, Verstappen bagged a record 16th victory in the 2023 Formula 1 season. He broke his own record that he set in 2022.
His Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez from Mexico won two Grands Prix this season.
Ferrari's Spanish driver Carlos Sainz, meanwhile, won only one race in the 2023 campaign.
In May, Formula 1 canceled the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, round six of the 2023 season due to flooding in northern Italy.
Red Bull have already won the 2023 constructors' title as the team dominated this season thanks to Verstappen's amazing performance.
