Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace - Interlagos

version 1991 · Historic · 4.325 km · 17 corners · 750 m alt. · DLC Historical Tracks 1

Default date 1991-3-24.

This recreates the short Interlagos of the early 1990s, soon after the major 1990 rebuild. It keeps the period’s 17-corner definition, kerbs, run-off and rougher surroundings; this is the version used for Senna’s first home victory.

The period kerbs and crests tolerate less abuse than the modern circuit. Brake with the car settled and leave margin on exit, because a lock-up or a wheel on the grass is costly.

version 1993 · Historic · 4.325 km · 17 corners · 750 m alt. · DLC Historical Tracks 1

Default date 1993-2-26.

This represents Interlagos in 1993, still using the 4.325 km, 17-corner short layout but with the barriers, surface and trackside environment of that period. It hosted the chaotic wet race won by Ayrton Senna.

The period surface feels busier over bumps and weight transfers. Use smooth throttle and steering through the infield, then prepare the car for an early launch out of Junção.

version 1976 · Historic Alternate · 3.236 km · 6 corners · 750 m alt.

Default date 1976-2-26.

The Outer variant uses the perimeter loop of classic Interlagos and compresses it into 3.236 km with only six corners. The result is a very fast lap built around sustained loads and far less respite than the full historic course.

Aim for one smooth, repeatable line. With so few corners, a correction or poor exit affects a large part of the lap, so favour high-speed stability.

version 1976 · Historic · 7.927 km · 17 corners · 750 m alt.

Default date 1976-2-26.

This restores the original, nearly eight-kilometre Interlagos: a very fast perimeter course that dropped towards the lake before climbing back. Long bends, an undulating surface and close barriers make it a completely different circuit.

Confidence through long loaded corners is everything here. Avoid sharp corrections, preserve the brakes for the end of the straights and sacrifice a tenth rather than leaving the clean line.

version 2020 · Grade 1 · 4.295 km · 15 corners · 750 m alt.

Default date 2020-8-23.

This uses modern Interlagos geometry with the Stock Car Brasil presentation and race context. Loaded braking, slow corners and the uphill run to the line produce close racing and punish every loss of traction.

Build a car that is stable under braking but still rotates through Bico de Pato and Junção. In traffic, preserving the rear tyres usually creates better options late in the stint.

version 2020 · Grade 1 · 4.295 km · 15 corners · 750 m alt.

Default date 2021-11-12.

The modern layout links the Senna S and the downhill Curva do Sol with a technical infield and the long climb from Junção to the line. Its elevation changes and anti-clockwise direction work the right-front tyre especially hard.

Prioritise traction out of Junção and Bico de Pato. A clean exit is worth more than an aggressive entry because both corners lead into long acceleration zones.

version 2020 · Kart · 1.123 km · 19 corners · 750 m alt.

Default date 2020-11-1.

This is the longest and most technical Interlagos kart layout: 1.123 km and 19 linked corners with almost no time to relax. It rewards precision and the ability to carry speed through direction changes.

Do not attack every corner in isolation. Link the sequences, avoid sliding the rear axle and sacrifice the first entry when it improves the final exit.

version 2020 · Kart · 1.120 km · 15 corners · 750 m alt.

Default date 2020-7-1.

It is almost as long as Kart One but reduces the lap to 15 corners. This creates a more open, rhythmic configuration where minimum speed and long exits matter more.

Let the kart roll and minimise steering angle. Excess braking breaks the rhythm, while a rounded line keeps the engine in its useful range.

version 2020 · Kart · 0.699 km · 9 corners · 750 m alt.

Default date 2020-11-1.

The short variant packs nine corners into only 699 metres. Laps arrive quickly and every mistake is magnified, making it especially suitable for compact racing and learning clean lines.

Consistency gains time. Keep the kart straight under braking, avoid overusing the kerbs and focus on repeating the same exit lap after lap.
