Its name was given in the 16th century by the Portuguese during the hey days of sugar cane trade in Brazil. According to historians, blocks of sugar were made in conical molds of clay to be transported on ships. The shape given by these molds was similar to the peak, hence the name.

The circuit is one of the few racing circuits that go in an anti-clockwise direction. Many drivers consider Interlagos interesting because it was not built on flat terrain, but follows the ups and downs of the hilly ground. This makes it harder to drive and demands more precision. Be prepared for the noise either of the engines or for the cheering when the next Brazilian driver wins the grand prix.

The development boom at the end of the 19th century quickly transformed the landscape of the city, giving rise to new buildings and monuments that made it a grand metropolis. It is maybe not the most beautiful city but it can be very fascinating if you can “see behind the curtains”.
