'You know, they don't build circuits like this anymore,' Lewis Hamilton said of Interlagos, still full of its original charm.
Constructed before World War II, Brazil’s Autódromo José Carlos Pace, commonly known as Interlagos, still holds onto its original charm. The circuit starts with banked curves, a quality featured among many pre-WWII tracks, as the drivers push through the Senna S and launch into a DRS zone at the exit of Turn 3 and heading towards Turn 4. Sector Two is fairly snake-like, and the lap ends on a banked final turn.
Advertisement What’s in a name? This race and track have been a mystery because they have had numerous different names, all ultimately meaning the same thing. Autódromo de Interlagos was renamed Autódromo José Carlos Pace nearly four decades ago . The name is in honor of Brazilian driver José Carlos Pace, who won the 1975 Brazilian GP and died in a plane crash near São Paulo in 1977.
