To keep us (and the drivers) a bit warm in these cold times of year, Formula 1 have created the Virtual Grand Prix series. It is an online championship where some of the professional drivers compete against each other and some well-known names from the sports and entertainment world. This Sunday it is the final at the Interlagos circuit.

Last week, Red Bull's Alexander Albon was trounced by George Russell in the Virtual Grand Prix of Britain. They are the two biggest names in the event, yet they are also both trailing in the championship.

The $100,000 prize pool is shared between the entered teams, and in this battle for glory, Red Bull Racing and Williams have to beat Ferrari Driver Academy and Haas. For Haas, the Fittipaldi brothers currently have the most points.

In their home race they can therefore take the title and the prize money. This battle can be followed via this live stream on Youtube and starts at 18:00 GMT time.
