1972 Brazilian Grand Prix

The 1972 Brazilian Grand Prix was a Formula One non-championship race held at Interlagos on March 30, 1972.

This race was held because at that time the FIA regulations required a demonstration race to be held as a quality check, before a Grand Prix was admitted as a championship race.
