The 2019 Brazilian Grand Prix (formally known as the Formula 1 Heineken Grande Prêmio do Brasil 2019) was a Formula One motor race that was held on 17 November 2019 at the Autódromo José Carlos Pace in São Paulo, Brazil. The race was the penultimate round of the 2019 Formula One World Championship and marked the forty-eighth running of the Brazilian Grand Prix and the forty-seventh time that the race has been run as a World Championship event since the inaugural season in 1950.
The race was won by Max Verstappen and for the first time in the turbo-hybrid era introduced in 2014 and the first time since the 2013 United States Grand Prix, the final podium did not feature a Mercedes or Ferrari driver, as Verstappen, Pierre Gasly and Carlos Sainz made up the top-three.[2]
