Lewis Hamilton believes Formula 1 does not need to expand its calendar beyond the current amount of 21 races per year.

Pietro Fittipaldi has been revealed as the Haas F1 Team’s official test driver for 2019 and will take part in the post-season Pirelli tyre test in Abu Dhabi later this month.

Kimi Raikkonen says once he lost the chance to attack Ferrari team-mate Sebastian Vettel and Mercedes’ Valtteri Bottas he endured a “boring” Brazilian Grand Prix and felt comfortable defending against a late Lewis Hamilton charge to keep third place.

Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff has praised Brazilian Grand Prix pole-sitter Valtteri Bottas for getting on top of his issues with the W08 car and Pirelli tyres to ignite his late season charge for the runner-up spot in the Formula 1 world championship.

Fernando Alonso says profiting from zero engine penalties by qualifying a promoted sixth place for the Brazilian Grand Prix will provide McLaren with its key opportunity to show its true pace.
