DThe Brazilian Grand Prix of Formula One will take place at the historic Interlagos track until 2030.
Formula One announced Friday it extended the contract to race in the Brazilian metropolis, which was due to end in 2025. The track has hosted several title-deciding races over the years in competitive seasons.
Interlagos will host this weekend’s race, with Red Bull’s Max Verstappen already crowned as champion for the third time in his career. More than 230,000 fans are expected to attend from Friday to Sunday.
️The roar of engines echoes across Interlagos as the Brazilian GP takes center stage in the F1 world. It’s more than a race; it’s a celebration of passion, speed, and the indomitable spirit of Brazil’s racing heritage. #BrazilianGP #F1— TOB Motorsport (@tobmotorsport) November 2, 2023

Stefano Domenicali, the CEO of Formula One, said in a statement that Interlagos “is a favorite of drivers and fans around the world.”
“It embodies everything that is great about racing, and we look forward to seeing how it develops over the years to come to create an even better experience,” he said.
Alan Adler, CEO of Sao Paulo Grand Prix, said: “It is a great honour to have the contract extension that ensures Sao Paulo’s place on the Formula 1 calendar. This is the recognition of the work we have been doing, with the crucial support of the Sao Paulo City Hall.
“Continuing to be a partner of Formula 1 is a matter of great pride. Now, we will immediately start planning for the years ahead so that we can have even better Grand Prix editions in the coming years.”

The Brazilian Grand Prix has been part of the racing series for the last 50 years, with the exception of 2020 due to the COVID pandemic. In some years the race took place at the former Jacarepagua circuit in Rio de Janeiro — which is now the city’s Olympic Park.
Next season, the Sao Paulo Grand Prix will take place on 1-3 November.
