Verstappen and Hamilton on difficulty of Brazilian GP passing

Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton agreed after qualifying that fighting through the field at the Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace would be considerably harder with the 2026 cars than in previous years.

The source text cites the removal of DRS and a new overtake mode among the reasons for that view, though the full explanation is not included in the excerpt available here.

The piece also highlights another comeback drive from Verstappen, while Lando Norris is described as being in a league of his own.
