Sunday 23rd March 1986

The Brazilian Grand Prix was held at Jacarepaguá. Nigel Mansell was out of the race on the first lap after an overtaking attempt on Senna saw him in the wall. Otherwise it was a relatively uneventful race. Both Brazilian drivers in the race finished 1-2 in this race, with Nelson Piquet winning driving a Williams-Honda FW11and Ayrton Senna finishing second.
