Sunday's title deciding Formula 1 Grand Prix of Brazil will be held over 71 laps of the 4.309km Autodrome José Carlos Pace in Sao Paulo.

The total race distance will be 305.9km.

There will be just one DRS zone, Drag Reduction System, during Sunday' race. The activation ppoint will be located at the apex of Corner 2 and the activation zone will be situated 133m before the exit of Turn 3.

Changes to the circuit since 2011 include new debris fences that have been installed on both sides of the track between Turns 3 and 4, a kerb that has been installed on the apex of turn 15, and tube inserts that have been placed in the tire barrier on the end of the wall at the pit entry.

The three race stewards will be Gary Connelly, deputy president of the FIA Institute, Silvia Bellot, graduate of the FIA Trainee Steward programme and 8-time Le Mans winner Tom Kristensen.
