01A note from your host

Dear Guest,

Welcome to São Paulo — a city that lives and breathes motor racing, and a circuit with more drama per lap than almost anywhere on the calendar.

We have composed a weekend that brings you close to the team: mornings in the garage, a Brazilian tasting menu from our guest chef, and the view from the suite as the cars climb towards Junção.

Everything you need is here. Should anything be required — a table, a car, a helicopter — your hosts are a message away.

Com carinho,

Eleanor Hart

Senior Luxury Experience Manager

05The circuit

Lap record1:10.540 · V. Bottas · 2018

Construction of the Autódromo José Carlos Pace began in 1938. Formula One's first World Championship race here came in 1973, won by home hero Emerson Fittipaldi. Run anti-clockwise, the lap plunges through the Senna S, winds through the twisting infield, then climbs relentlessly to the banked Junção and up the start-finish straight.
