SAO PAULO, BRAZIL - NOVEMBER 05: Max Verstappen of the Netherlands driving the (1) Oracle Red Bull

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!

HIGHLIGHTS: Relive last season’s Sao Paulo Grand Prix as Verstappen nets his 17th win of 2023
