NASCAR’s presence in Mexico is growing, and four drivers recently got a firsthand look at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez as they prepare for this summer’s NASCAR Mexico Series race. The track, known for its rich motorsports history and passionate fanbase, will host one of the most anticipated international events on NASCAR’s 2025 calendar.
Getting Acquainted with Mexico’s Premier Racing Venue
As part of their visit, the drivers toured the 2.67-mile road course, which has hosted a variety of major racing events, including Formula 1’s Mexican Grand Prix and past NASCAR Xfinity Series races in the mid-2000s. The track’s unique layout, featuring the famous Foro Sol stadium section, provides a thrilling challenge with tight corners and high-speed straightaways.
“This is an incredible facility,” said one of the visiting drivers. “The fans here are so passionate, and it’s exciting to see NASCAR continuing to expand internationally.”
NASCAR’s Growing Presence in Mexico
The NASCAR Mexico Series has been a key part of the sport’s international growth, producing talented drivers like Daniel Suárez—who made history as the first Mexican-born driver to win a NASCAR Cup Series race. NASCAR’s return to Mexico City further solidifies the commitment to developing talent and expanding the sport’s reach.
With this summer’s race set to attract local and international attention, these early preparation laps could provide a valuable advantage for the drivers looking to make their mark south of the border.
