Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc will miss the first practice session at the Brazilian Grand Prix after returning home for the birth of his first child. Reserve driver Dino Beganovic will step in for FP1 at Interlagos in place of Leclerc. The driver's wife, Alexandra Saint Mieux, announced the birth of their daughter, Bianca, on Wednesday afternoon.
Leclerc is expected to return to Brazil in time for second practice and intends to compete across the remainder of the race weekend. The appearance allows Ferrari to fulfill rookie driver running requirements following their decision not to field a reserve during practice in Mexico.
