The São Paulo Grand Prix has secured its future on the F1 calendar until the end of the decade after closing a five-year contract extension with the sport.

Interlagos is one of the best-loved tracks on the schedule, having played host to a number of iconic moments in F1 history over the years.

Ahead of track action for this year's Sprint weekend, F1 has announced a major deal extension with the race organisers, securing its future until 2030.

The extension follows investment by São Paulo Mayor Ricardo Nunes’ administration as the city seeks upgrades to the Interlagos circuit to become a venue suitable for hosting wider entertainment events.

Race promotor MC Brazil Motorsport has 'worked closely' with the city to enhance the fan experience, placing an increased focus on a number of environmental and social initiatives.

Brazil has a 'rich racing heritage'

F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali said: “I am delighted to announce we will be staying at Interlagos until 2030, and I can’t wait for many more years of the wonderful atmosphere that the Brazilian fans bring.

"Brazil has such a rich racing heritage, and this iconic circuit is a favourite of drivers and fans around the world.

"It embodies everything that is great about racing, and we look forward to seeing how it develops over the years to come to create an even better experience.”

Race CEO Alan Adler added: “It is a great honour to have the contract extension that ensures São Paulo’s place on the Formula 1 calendar.

"This is the recognition of the work we have been doing, with the crucial support of the São Paulo City Hall. Continuing to be a partner of Formula 1 is a matter of great pride.

"Now, we will immediately start planning for the years ahead so that we can have even better Grand Prix editions in the coming years.”
