History
Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez is a 2.518-mile road course located approximately 15 minutes from the center of Mexico City. The original Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez track was built in 1963 for Formula One events. That circuit raced at the facility from 1963 to 1970, and then returned to race there from 1986 through 1992.

Racing has a rich tradition in Mexico. CART first raced at the facility in 2002. The three-day total attendance for the track's 2003 CART event was an astounding 402,413, with a crowd of 221,011 on race day.

In June 1950, NASCAR Founder Bill France Sr. teamed with Curtis Turner to drive in the first Mexican Road Race. The 2,178 mile race was run from El Paso, Texas, across Mexico to Guatemala. Others participating in the event from the world of NASCAR included Bob and Fonty Flock, Raymond Parks and Red Byron.

From the airport, take the exit bridge into Blvd. Puerto Aereo south (left) and go one mile until it merges with Rio Churubusco. The track will be on your left about half a mile ahead. Make a u-turn at the under-pass on Churubusco, right in front of the Sports Palace, and stay on the outside, the street circles the Sports Park where the track is located. After a right hand turn where the elevated subway line runs, you'll find entrance #5 to the Sports Park and the track is 200 yards inside.
