F. I. A. Formula 1 World Championship – Grande Premio Petrobas Do Brasil, Race Report
“Webber sizzles in Sao Paulo”
SAO PAULO
PRE RACE
The first Brazilian F1 Grand Prix (that was included in the official F1 calendar) was held at the Interlagos (Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace) in 1973. The Grand Prix initially alternated between this track and Rio de Janeiro (Jacarepague). From 1990 onwards the race has been held at Interlagos. The Brazilian Grand Prix has delivered some classic races over the years: often deciding championships. The Interlagos circuit remains relatively unchanged and is a real challenge for the drivers. The translation of “Interlagos” is “between the lakes”.

PRE RACE
Race day dawns at the Yas Marina circuit – it is going to be a perfect, sunny and warm day. Fast forward a few hours, and the build-up to this twilight race is well underway. Hordes of fans have made their way to the track. Many are enjoying pre-race sundowners as the glowing orb of the sun descends into the late afternoon. All around, from the grand stands, to the Yas Hotel, to the paddock area, to the decks of the luxury motor yachts easing against their moorings in the marina, to whatever vantage point is available: there is an electric atmosphere of excitement building. The setting is postcard perfect; from the track, to the stunning architectural features of the surrounding buildings, to the marina: what an atmosphere!
It’s time to go racing… This is Formula 1!
