The Miami International Autodrome has hosted an F1 race since 2022
The Miami International Autodrome, home of the F1’s Miami Grand Prix, will undergo a major transformation post this weekend’s race, held on a temporary street circuit around the Hard Rock Stadium complex in Miami Gardens, Florida.
Originally built as an NFL stadium for the Miami Dolphins in 1987, the venue has expanded to host various sporting events, including the Miami Open tennis tournament and F1 since 2022.
After the 2026 Miami Grand Prix, the Autodrome will transform into a venue for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with the Hard Rock Stadium hosting seven matches of the tournament, starting on June 15.
Senior Vice President of Stadium Operations for the Miami Dolphins, Todd Boyan, mentioned that dismantling the F1 circuit typically takes about four weeks, with an expedited process to make way for the FIFA World Cup preparations.
The construction of the F1 Miami GP involves an impressive amount of materials and logistics, showcasing the significant effort required to host these top-tier sporting events back-to-back at the same venue.
