Having a Brazilian driver on the grid in a long-term factory project rekindles the passion of the fans in the Interlagos grandstands and makes Bortoleto one of the main focuses of attention throughout the race weekend.

The event plays a key role in São Paulo's economy. During race week, high-end hotels, prestige restaurants and executive transportation services operate at full capacity, driven by the arrival of international delegations, global sponsors and fans.

## A packed schedule and the peak of speed

Over the three days, the crowd at Interlagos follows free practice, qualifying sessions and the official race on Sunday. The combination of a technical, challenging circuit with a Brazilian driver on the grid renews São Paulo's prominence on the international motorsport scene.
