 | Inaugurated two weeks before its first Formula 1 Grand Prix, September 1991, the Catalunya circuit has proved to be one of the best-designed circuits of the recent era; it is well-liked by most drivers and so has retained the privilege of hosting the Spanish Grand Prix ever since. |
 | In 1982 the circuit was renamed in honour of Gilles Villeneuve, the very popular Canadian driver, who died during practice for the Belgium GP that year and who had won the first F1 race held on the Ile Notre Dame circuit in 1978. |
 | Although the Grand Prix of São Paulo has taken place since 1936, the Interlagos circuit was not built until 1940, and only acquired international fame when it was redeveloped in the early 70´s, when it became the host circuit for the Brazilian Grand Prix from 1972 to 1980. |
