A team spokesman said the 30-year-old Briton had a fever but
would be flying to Sao Paulo later on Wednesday, a day later
than planned.
Hamilton had earlier pulled out of a sponsor event in Sao Paulo,
triggering speculation locally that he could miss the race.
The Briton clinched his third title in Texas last month, with
three races to spare, and Mercedes have also retained their
constructors' crown.
"No, he's not going to miss the race," the spokesman said. "He's
going to be a day late... the doctor advised him to cancel the
earlier flight so he missed a press conference today."
Hamilton has never won the Brazilian Grand Prix at Interlagos,
the home race of his late boyhood idol and fellow triple
champion Ayrton Senna.
The Briton's German team mate Nico Rosberg won the race last
season.
