The championship returned to the Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace in 1990, after a switch to Rio de Janeiro 12 years previously, and in 2020 event officials renewed terms with F1 for another five years.
Previously, the venue did not pay a hosting fee. But that changed under the terms of the revised deal that runs until 2025, for which the city of Sao Paolo contributes £2.7million per year. As such, the event was renamed as the Sao Paulo GP to reflect the financial outlay.
