Autódromo Internacional de Guaporé, Motorsport-Rennstrecke in Brasilien
The Autódromo Internacional de Guaporé is a racing circuit in Brazil with roughly 3 kilometers of paved track featuring challenging turns and straightaways. The facility includes driver paddocks, safety barriers, and spectator areas that accommodate both car and motorcycle races.
The track was founded in 1969 on a former airport site after Dr Nelson Luiz Barro brought his motorsport passion to town. The original dirt surface was paved in 1973 and officially opened in 1976, later hosting international events like the South American Formula 3 series in 1985.
The track is named after Dr Nelson Luiz Barro, a doctor who brought his passion for motorsport to the town. On race days, fans and drivers gather here to share their excitement for fast cars and motorcycles, creating a strong sense of community among racing enthusiasts.
On race days, it is best to arrive early to secure good parking and spots in the spectator areas. The facility is easily accessible from nearby towns, and on special Track Day events, visitors can also drive their own cars or motorcycles on the circuit.
The track was built on a former airfield and kept its T-shaped layout from that era. Famous racing drivers like Ingo Hoffmann and Emerson Fittipaldi have competed here, anchoring the circuit in international motorsport history.
