Circuit which was announces new MotoGP venue is now dreaming of F1
Argentina is aiming to revive its motorsport legacy by modernizing Autodromo Oscar y Juan Galvez in Buenos Aires and setting the stage for MotoGP’s move to the venue in 2027. This strategic move is part of Buenos Aires’ broader initiative to reclaim its status as a hub for motorsports in South America and potentially host a Formula 1 race in the future. The city’s interest in motorsport resurgence intensified following local driver Franco Colapinto’s successful stint, fueling a surge in support from national companies looking to get involved in the sport. With plans to renovate the historic Galvez circuit and meet international racing standards, Buenos Aires is envisioning a return to hosting Formula 1 races, echoing its past glory as a global motorsport destination. The circuit’s evolution under the guidance of renowned F1 track designer Hermann Tilke is structured in two phases, with MotoGP as phase one and Formula 1 compatibility as the ultimate goal in the modernization process.
