Interlagos – Where Speed, Sound, and Passion Collide

For anyone with a love for motorsport, Interlagos is more than just a racetrack—it’s sacred ground. Officially named Autódromo José Carlos Pace, this legendary circuit in the south of São Paulo has been the heart of Brazilian motorsport for decades. But for me, it’s also deeply personal.

As a lifelong fan of Formula 1, walking the famous “S do Senna” was a dream come true. That sequence of curves, named after Brazil’s beloved Ayrton Senna, is not just a technical challenge for drivers—it’s a symbol of his legacy. Senna, to me and to many others, wasn’t just the greatest F1 driver of all time—he was a national hero, a source of pride, and an inspiration.

You can feel the history in the asphalt at Interlagos. The roar of engines, the tension of race day, the unpredictable São Paulo weather—it all adds to the drama that makes this circuit one of the most exciting on the F1 calendar. Watching a Grand Prix here isn’t just about the race; it’s about being part of something legendary.

Not Just Racing: The Pulse of Lollapalooza

But Interlagos isn’t only about motorsport. As a music lover, the fact that Lollapalooza Brazil takes place on these same grounds makes it even more special. It’s surreal, in the best possible way, to see a massive music festival unfold in the same space where race cars normally scream by at 300 km/h. From the electric energy of the crowds to world-class performances against the backdrop of the grandstands, Interlagos transforms into a stage for every kind of passion.

Interlagos is where engines and emotions run high, where the past and present of Brazilian culture collide in a symphony of sound and speed. Whether it’s racing legends, unforgettable concerts, or simply standing where history was made, Interlagos holds a unique place in my heart—and always will.
