Race Tracks in Chile

Chile's motorsport scene is compact and spread thinly along the country's length, with permanent circuits scattered from the Atacama Desert to Patagonia rather than clustered in one region. The modern Autódromo Internacional de Codegua near Rancagua is the closest permanent circuit to Santiago and the country's most capable venue, while the older Autódromo Interlomas anchors racing in the southern Araucanía region and the historic Autódromo Villa Olímpica de Quilpué, open since 1957, serves the Valparaíso area. Further out, the Autódromo Juvenal Jeraldo near La Serena and Coquimbo, the Autódromo Municipal Manfredo Suiter Hertlein near Concepción, and the remote Autódromo Cabo Negro outside Punta Arenas round out the national roster. Two long-serving circuits, Autódromo Las Vizcachas near Santiago and Autódromo Vegas de Quilaco near La Unión, are now dormant, and Santiago's purpose-built Formula E street circuit, used from 2018 to 2020, has since been dismantled. Chile's biggest motorsport draw is off the permanent circuits entirely: Rally Mobil, the national rally championship, and the FIA World Rally Championship's Rally Chile Biobío round, held on closed public roads in the Biobío region since 2019. This page is deliberately short and lists only venues confirmed by a source.

Frequently asked questions

Does this list include horse racing tracks?+

No. Chile's Club Hípico de Santiago and Hipódromo Chile are horse-racing venues, not motorsport circuits, and are not covered here.

What is Chile's main race circuit?+

Autódromo Internacional de Codegua, near Rancagua in the O'Higgins Region, is Chile's most modern permanent circuit and the closest to Santiago.

Has Chile hosted international motorsport?+

Santiago hosted the Formula E Santiago ePrix on a temporary street circuit from 2018 to 2020, Codegua hosted Argentina's Súper TC 2000 touring car series in 2014, and the FIA World Rally Championship has run Rally Chile Biobío on closed public roads since 2019.

Are Las Vizcachas and Vegas de Quilaco still active?+

Both are dormant. Las Vizcachas near Santiago has seen little organised racing since 2006, and Vegas de Quilaco near La Unión has been reduced to amateur club use due to track deterioration.

Does Chile have oval or speedway racing?+

No purpose-built ovals or speedway venues are documented in Chile; circuit racing here is exclusively road-course format, with off-road and rally-style dirt tracks handling closed-course oval-style club events in some regions instead.

Where does Chilean rally racing happen?+

Rally Mobil, Chile's national rally championship, runs closed public-road stages across different regions each season rather than at a fixed venue, and the Biobío region also hosts a round of the FIA World Rally Championship.

What is Chile's oldest permanent circuit?+

Autódromo Villa Olímpica de Quilpué, also known as Autódromo Gustavo "Felo" Rivera, opened in 1957 in the Valparaíso Region and remains one of the country's oldest active circuits.
