Transport in Sao Paulo
Sao Paulo has two airports, with Guarulhos, 30 kilometres east of the city, handling international traffic. The best way to get into the city is by hire car or taxi. Bus is the cheapest option, though they can be rather crowded.
If you like city driving, you’ll love the challenge of Sao Paulo. As you would expect is such a huge metropolis, traffic is normally heavy and driving standards somewhat erratic – watch out for people lane crossing and braking sharply. Sao Paulo‘s Metro system is clean and efficient and is the best way of getting around the city centre. However, it doesn’t extend to the suburbs, so if you’re not hiring a car, a taxi is the easiest way to get to the track at Interlagos.
Event Info
The Brazilian Grand Prix certainly is a special occasion. The past two FIA Formula One World Champions were both crowned here - and they were both British.
In 2010 with Bruno Senna and Lucas Di Grassi racing in their home countries alongside the more established Massa and Barichello, a total of 4 Brazilian drivers and most born in the hosting city Sao Paulo will be racing.
Sao Paulo Circuit
Interlagos also has many changes in elevation and numerous challenging corners. There are only two passing opportunities on the circuit, one at Senna's S at the end of the pit straight and at the Descida do Lago, at the end of the Reta Oposta (back straight). The track is not only demanding for drivers, but also on the cars. The bumpy surface makes great demands on the suspension and the many challenging corners test gearboxes and transmissions. The natural lay-out of the Interlagos circuit provides spectators with excellent views. In fact 50 percent of the circuit can be seen from the grandstands, which have a capacity of 65,000. However, many die-hard fans recommend seating near the Senna-S, to witness the most action. Grandstad G has space reserved for people with disabilities
Compared to some circuits, Interlagos has a relatively small crowd capacity of about 80,000. The grandstands are virtually all situated on the outside of the track at the start of the lap and are split into two price categories. Due to the swampy nature of the infield - Interlagos literally means between the lakes - the race organisers do not offer general admission tickets. To inject some true latin spirit into your visit, make sure you sample caipirinha, Brazil's notorious cachaca-based cocktail. It's good - and very alcoholic.
For those who wish to pay their respects to the late, great Ayrton Senna, the grave of the three-time champion is in Sao Paulo's Morumbi cemetery.
The Interlagos kart track (adjacent to the Grand Prix circuit) is also worth a visit, purely for the reason that so many successful careers started there. Nelson Piquet, Emerson Fittipaldi, Senna and Barrichello all raced there.
As a boy, says Barrichello, I remember staring through the fence at the Grand Prix track and dreaming of racing on it one day?
