Storm batters Interlagos circuit

A fierce storm has battered the Interlagos circuit after nightfall on Friday.

Local reports say a grandstand roof at the Senna S was damaged amid the wind, heavy rain, thunder and lightning, with work to repair it complicated by power cuts.

Circuit spokesperson Castilho de Andrade said: "Repairs will be made overnight, with all necessary measures taken. Certainly there will be no risk to anyone."
