Pierre Gasly is returning to race in Brazil for the third time and he is targeting a finish in the points having never previously done so. The penultimate race of the season is a key one for the Frenchman as he looks to build on 8th place in the standings.

"This will be my third time racing at Interlagos and so far I've not finished in the points, so that is the first target for the weekend

 "Brazil has an iconic role in Formula 1 and when I was little and even today, my idol is Ayrton Senna

 "So, going to Brazil is always great as there is such a culture of Formula 1 in this country.

 Gasly heads to Brazil full of confidence after signing a deal with Toro Rosso for next season.

 The Frenchman came through in 13th place in Brazil last year.
