The line-up for the Brazilian Grand Prix has been announced for the FIA press conference. Max Verstappen will appear in front of the press in the first half-hour along with close friends Daniel Ricciardo and Lando Norris.

Ricciardo, Verstappen and Norris up at the same time

The first half-hour of the press conference in Sao Paulo may be an entertaining moment on Thursday. Red Bull Racing's Verstappen, AlphaTauri's Ricciardo and McLaren's Norris will take their seats in front of the press at the same time. Alongside these three, Lance Stroll of Aston Martin and Kevin Magnussen of Haas F1 will take their seats.

The second part of the press event will feature Valtteri Bottas, Charles Leclerc, Carlos Sainz, Lewis Hamilton and Logan Sargeant. Group one starts at 12:30pm local time, while group two starts at 13:05pm. The start time of the press conference is 15:30 in the UK. The 10 drivers who do not appear at the official FIA moment will, however, speak to the other media gathered outside.

There will be another official FIA press moment on Friday. At 13:00 local time (16:00 UK time), Alessandro Alunni Bravi (team boss Alfa Romeo), Tom McCullough (engineer Aston Martin), Diego Ioverno (engineer Ferrari) and Mario Isola (Sporting Director Pirelli) will be joining them.
