Race Tracks in Mexico

Mexico's motorsport scene centres on Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez in Mexico City, the Magdalena Mixhuca circuit that has hosted the Formula One Mexican and Mexico City Grands Prix on and off since 1962 and is named after brothers Ricardo and Pedro Rodríguez. Beyond that headline venue, the country runs a genuinely national network built around the NASCAR Mexico Series, which rotates between short paved ovals in Aguascalientes, Chiapas, Querétaro, Puebla (Abed), Monterrey and San Luis Potosí. Most major complexes are multi-purpose: Guadalajara, Monterrey, Puebla and Mexico City combine a road course, an oval and a drag strip on one site. Regional road courses in Guanajuato, Hidalgo, Chihuahua, Yucatán, the State of Mexico and Quintana Roo support NACAM and club racing, and Cancún's Autódromo Internacional leans heavily into karting and drag events. Off-road racing is huge on the Baja California peninsula, headlined by the SCORE Baja 1000 desert race out of Ensenada. This guide covers Mexico's active circuits, ovals, drag strips, karting venues and the country's notable closures.

23 venues listed across 6 categories. Venues with a full RaceTrackWorld guide are linked.

Track days and driving experiences in Mexico

Mexico's track-day scene is smaller and less centralised than in the US or Europe, running mainly through circuit-affiliated clubs and car brand experience days rather than one national operator. Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, Autódromo Guadalajara and Autódromo Monterrey all host open pitlane and driving-school days for local car clubs and occasional manufacturer events (Porsche, BMW, Audi), typically priced from a few hundred to over a thousand Mexican pesos per session depending on car class. Karting is the more accessible entry point: venues such as the Autódromo Internacional de Cancún and kart tracks attached to the Guadalajara and Monterrey complexes offer walk-up rental karting most weekends alongside club racing.

Frequently asked questions

Does this list include horse racing tracks?+

What is Mexico's most famous race track?+

Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez in Mexico City, host of the Formula One Mexican/Mexico City Grand Prix and named after brothers Ricardo and Pedro Rodríguez, is by far the country's best-known circuit.

Is the Cajititlán tri-oval still used for racing?+

Its current status is uncertain. The Trióvalo Internacional de Cajititlán near Guadalajara hosted oval racing in the 2010s, but no confirmed 2024-or-later race activity could be found, so it is listed here as dormant.
