The 10th edition of the Estoril Classics is scheduled to take place at the Autódromo do Estoril from September 18 to 20. The event will feature over 200 classic vehicles, including Formula 1 models, GTs, touring cars, and prototypes, organized into 14 races and 10 competitions.

A central attraction of the event is the McLaren MP4/1. This vehicle is noted for its historical significance as the first Formula 1 car to utilize a full carbon fiber monocoque, a design innovation that improved structural rigidity and driver safety. The car is also associated with Niki Lauda, who utilized the technology during his return to Formula 1 and later secured a world championship in 1984.
