A particularly nasty moment ahead of the Brazilian Grand Prix. F1 journalist Joe Saward reports a fire in the media centre.
The Brazilian Grand Prix will take place at the Interlagos circuit this afternoon. Quiet some time to prepare for the race, but that was not the case for the journalists on the ground. Saward reported on X, formerly known as Twitter, a fire in the media centre.
Fire in Brazil
"Well, that's a first. There was a fire (a small one) in the media centre caused by an electrical glitch. Brazil is always full of surprises, we once had a flood in the old Media Centre, on the third floor of the pit building, with water coming in from the roof!"
