Curitiba is a motorsport circuit located in Pinhais, Brazil and has hosted the World Touring Car Championship, TC2000, Formula Truck and Stock Car Brasil series and also hosts the Brazilian Formula 3 Championship. Several racing drivers have said that the track is bumpy (Fabrizio Giovanardi, JAS Motorsport), has a mix of fast and medium speed turns that do not favor BMW touring cars (Andy Priaulx, BMW Team UK) and that it is similar to Oschersleben but with more dramatic elevation changes (Jordi Gene, SEAT Sport).

The elevation changes between Entrada do Miolo and Pinheirinho reward well balanced cars. Confident drivers can gain a serious advantage through the heavily banked turns. Curva de Vitoria has quite a bit of positive camber and your exit speed will carry through, all the way down the straight. However if the car goes even 10 cm wide, it will end in the wall. There is only one racing line through this fast corner, so the driver requires to line up behind the car in front and slingshot past it down the straight.

The circuit has been featured in Game Stock Car Extreme and Race 07.
