| History Interlagos was the home of the Brazilian Grand Prix in the 70's - then an awesome test with fast banked left-hander and a length of 6.92km (4.3 miles). But after losing the event for a decade to Rio the circuit was reshaped. Now it has been modernised and shortened to 4.325km (2.684 miles). But it is still a demanding test for both car and driver. Modern facilities for teams, media and medics have ensured its place on the calendar. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
