Autódromo Internacional Nelson Piquet, Motor racing circuit in Brasília, Brazil

The Autódromo Internacional Nelson Piquet stretches 5.476 kilometers with long straights and multiple overtaking zones, accommodating various racing categories.

Initially named Autódromo Emilio Medici, the circuit opened in 1974 and underwent management changes before receiving its current name from Brazilian racing champion Nelson Piquet.

The racing venue forms part of the Ayrton Senna Sports Complex, representing Brazil's dedication to motorsport through generations of racing champions.

Located 10 miles from Brasília International Airport, the circuit commenced extensive renovations in 2022 with an investment of 60 million Brazilian reais.

The circuit layout resembles a woman playing a harp, featuring a distinctive design by engineer Samuel Dias with original grandstands for 100,000 spectators.
