Jenson Button has insisted McLaren will be doing everything to end their season on a high with just two rounds remaining.
The Woking-based squad suffered a below par weekend in Mexico, finishing just outside the points in 12th and 13th respectively.
Button has fond memories of the Interlagos circuit; as well as clinching his 2009 world championship, the Briton scored his first career points with a sixth place finish in 2000.
Although the track does not necessarily play to their cars strengths, Button says the team will be working hard to get back in the points paying positions this weekend.
“I love Interlagos and I’m really excited about the weekend,” he said.
“There’s been some absolutely classic Formula One races there and it’s always a good climax toward the end of the season.
“I hope we can have a better result there than we did in Mexico and work towards getting back into the points.
“There’s only two races left so we’ll be giving it our all for the awesome Brazilian fans.
“The atmosphere at Interlagos is always something special, so we’ll go out there and show them a great weekend of racing.”
This year’s Brazilian Grand Prix will be Button’s 17th start in Sao Paulo, the 36-year-old believes the circuit is how a racetrack should be built, describing the lap as ‘enjoyable’.
“The Interlagos circuit has a bit of – how can I put it? – ‘muscle’,” he added.
“It’s a place that you really attack – and it’s really enjoyable, particularly when the front-end is properly nailed.
“A corner like Ferradura is really satisfying when you get it right; you really commit at the corner entry, barely scrubbing off any speed, and then sort of guide the car through until it rolls out of the second apex up onto the apex kerb. It’s great.
“Even the hairpins require a really attacking style, you can take lots of kerb, and there’s no run-off at the exits. It’s how a racetrack should be, really.”
