Plans continue to push forward for IndyCar to stage an exhibition race in Argentina following the conclusion of the 2024
Series leaders are actively working on the logistics to hold a non-points-paying IndyCar event at the Autodromo Termas de Rio Hondo in Argentina. The country has a strong IndyCar following, with popular national stock car champion Agustin Canapino joining the JHR team this season, which would ensure a successful event. While the final commitment has not been announced, more than half of the agreements are already in place to make it happen after the 2024 season. The recent presidential election in Argentina does not pose any new challenges, and a promoter is organizing the event at the fantastic facility. IndyCar aims for international expansion during the offseason, and Argentina could be a prime location for a dynamic and popular event. If everything goes smoothly, the formal announcement may come in the early part of the first quarter of next year. This would be the first official IndyCar event in Argentina since 1971, and the 2024 season allows for a couple of months before the holidays to fit it into the schedule.
