Iconic, Autódromo José Carlos Pace or Interlagos, is a classic F1 circuit with old school features and charm aplenty, but don’t take its venerable age as a sign of an easy run. With a very rough surface, twisting corners and a final straight which practically demands battles, you’ll need to make all the right calls from the pit wall in Brazil.

Tips & Tricks
Part long straights and part twisting series of corners, Autódromo José Carlos Pace is a circuit of two halves which will require equal levels of confidence to master.
- A one stop pit strategy may be tempting, but you’ll need to be spot on with your tyre management as the hard surface takes its toll. The time lost in maintaining your tyres may be better spent in the pit.
- The penultimate Sprint of the season, Interlagos could be your last chance to push and gain some extra points.
- The corner coming into the final straight can be a good place to push, but be sure you can maintain any gains as you’ll quickly be hitting another straight and DRS zone.
