The 2006 Brazilian GP Preview
Tom Keeble previews the final round of the season and rates the teams' chances of success at the Brazilian Grand Prix
Analysis
After a roller coaster weekend in Japan, including a rare Ferrari engine failure that gifted Fernando Alonso the win, reducing Michael Schumacher to a mathematical chance at the drivers' championship, the teams head to the Interlagos circuit in Sao Paulo, Brazil with the constructors' championship firmly in sight.
Interlagos is an interesting circuit, particularly when it rains. Dominated by a long uphill straight, engine power is at a premium, and aerodynamics are usually compromised to ensure sufficient top speed to avoid being overtaken. Too big a compromise results in reduced downforce, however, which is expensive over the rest of the lap.
