F1 Brazilian Grand Prix 2024 Sprint Race results: Final classification with penalties applied

Lando Norris' championship chances took a huge boost on Saturday, as he claimed victory in the Brazilian Grand Prix sprint race.

Max Verstappen had already been handed a five-place gird penalty for Sunday's main race, giving Norris some hope that he could cut the Dutchman's mammoth championship lead.

F1 RESULTS: Verstappen beaten as F1 star forced out with SHOCK retirement

During the sprint race, the Brit did exactly that, claiming his first ever sprint race victory thanks to a helping hand from team-mate Oscar Piastri.

Piastri started from pole, and looked like he had the pace to lead the race from start to finish, but let his championship-chasing team-mate through a few laps from the end after McLaren team orders.

Meanwhile, Verstappen crossed the line in third, but the Dutchman was later demoted to fourth, with the FIA handing him a five-second penalty for breaching virtual safety car rules.

Charles Leclerc therefore inherited third, with Carlos Sainz and Mercedes star George Russell rounding out the top six, in a format in which the top eight receive points in one-point increments from first-eighth.

Below is the final classification from the Brazilian Grand Prix sprint race.
