Beyond the battle for the championship, the drivers will face a different challenge in Brasília. The stage will take place on the circuit’s outer ring, a 2,919-meter layout with five corners in a clockwise direction. With long straightaways and fast turns, the course moves away from the circuit’s inner section and has characteristics close to those of an oval.

The setup is expected to demand a lot from drivers and teams, especially in balancing the cars and aerodynamic efficiency. The higher speeds also make precision in the corners even more important.

The Grand Final closes a calendar that visited Santa Cruz do Sul, Cascavel, Interlagos, Velocitta, Cuiabá, Londrina, Curvelo, and Chapecó. Chevrolet and Ford also reach the final round after a season of battles between the two manufacturers.

With only one point separating Gama and Casagrande, Brasília will host a decision where every detail can decide the outcome.
