Ferrari's Charles Leclerc will miss media duties ahead of the Brazilian Grand Prix following the birth of his first child.
The Monagesque driver announced on Instagram that his wife Alexandra gave birth to their daughter Bianca on Tuesday.
Leclerc had been scheduled to answer questions from the press on Thursday but has been allowed extra time at home with his family in Monaco.
The 29-year-old's absence means he will not address criticism from team-mate Lewis Hamilton following their tussle in the Mexico Grand Prix last weekend.
Hamilton accused Leclerc of working against him after he tried to overtake the British driver during the first lap when the pair were in front, opening the door for Max Verstappen to win the race.
"We have to have some serious talks behind the scenes for sure," Hamilton said.

"We don't have rules of engagement and, whether or not that will change anything from Charles' side, I don't know. Something needs to change for sure.
"I think it's a mentality thing. It's like, 'Do or die. Either I win or none of us do,' and it shouldn't be that."
The spat was met with frustration by Ferrari boss Fred Vasseur, who told Sky Sports: "I think it's just a matter of respect. Honestly, it's difficult to digest for me to give up a win like this."
