When is the Formula 1 2024 Sao Paulo Grand Prix and how can I watch it?
Round 21 of the Formula 1 season, the 2024 Sao Paulo Grand Prix weekend will take place between 1–3 November.
Officially the FORMULA 1 LENOVO GRANDE PRÊMIO DE SÃO PAULO 2024, the 71-lap Grand Prix starts at 14:00 local time (UTC -3) on Sunday, 3 November, at the Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
F1 first arrived in Brazil for a championship race in 1973, and a carnival atmosphere really does dominate whenever the sport returns. The circuit – more commonly referred to as Interlagos – is also hosting an F1 Sprint this season, so there’ll be even more action!
