Brazilian Grand Prix · São Paulo, Brazil
When you arrive at this iconic Brazilian motorsport venue on the outskirts of São Paulo, you'll be walking the same tarmac where racing legends have battled for glory since 1940. Today known as Autódromo José Carlos Pace—named for the beloved Brazilian F1 driver who lost his life in 1977—locals still affectionately call it Interlagos. What makes this circuit special isn't just its storied past, but the raw energy you'll feel as you watch cars thunder counterclockwise through its 4.3-kilometer layout. The track's elevation changes and challenging corners create some of motorsport's most dramatic moments, and Brazilian fans deliver an atmosphere that's nothing short of electric.
Beyond the main circuit, racing enthusiasts shouldn't miss the karting track dedicated to another Brazilian hero, Ayrton Senna. This is where future champions first taste speed, and you can often catch promising young drivers honing their skills. The venue has become even more significant in recent years—since 2024, it serves as the eternal resting place of José Carlos Pace himself, bringing his story full circle. Whether you're catching a race weekend or taking a track tour during the off-season, Interlagos offers a pilgrimage into the heart of Brazil's passionate racing culture.
