Camara disappointed after crash in debut Qualifying

Rafael Camara experienced a dramatic F1 Qualifying debut in rain-affected conditions at his home race in Sao Paulo, finishing 13th fastest and set to start P11 due to grid penalties. Stepping in unexpectedly for Haas following Esteban Ocon's departure, the Brazilian rookie overcame a spin in Q1 and a red-flag crash in Q2, expressing disappointment with his mistakes but viewing the session as largely positive. Looking ahead to Sunday's race, Camara's primary goal is to avoid incidents and complete a clean race with strong support from the home crowd, while preparing thoroughly with his engineers. Meanwhile, Haas teammate Oliver Bearman secured a strong P6 starting position, successfully navigating the tricky wet conditions despite struggling with tyre temperatures in Q3.
