Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc will not participate in media duties ahead of the Brazilian Grand Prix after the birth of his first child, the team confirmed on Wednesday.

The 27-year-old Monegasque driver became a father for the first time, prompting his absence from the scheduled press conferences and media sessions at Interlagos.

Leclerc is still expected to take part in on-track activities for the race weekend, which begins with practice on Friday.
