Steve Jones presents highlights of the Brazilian Grand Prix from Sao Paulo, the penultimate race in the 2016 Formula 1 season which still could have one more twist in the tale. Interlagos has been the setting for many title deciders over the past decade and this year is no exception as Mercedes rivals Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg continue their intense battle for the biggest prize in motor racing. Championship leader Rosberg has seen his lead reduced to 19 points with 50 remaining following back-to-back victories in the United States and Mexico for a resurgent Hamilton.

Racing at Interlagos often produces drama and Hamilton will be looking to secure his ninth win of the season, while hoping his teammate has a below par race to keep his dreams of winning a fourth World Title alive.
