Mexico City Grand Prix Locked In Through 2028 as Teams and Equipment Arrive

Organizers say the race operates debt-free, supported by a private trust that replaced public subsidies.

Overview

  • Canaco CDMX projects a 20.892 billion pesos economic impact for the 2025 weekend, with hotel occupancy near 90% and about 7.914 billion pesos in ticket revenue.
  • Freight convoys are unloading chassis, engines, wings, tools, hospitality supplies and Pirelli tyres at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, with supervisors citing roughly 50 tons of team parts per race.
  • City authorities are rolling out security and traffic controls around key routes including Viaducto, Zaragoza and Río Piedad, with venue access limited to authorized personnel.
  • Organizers plan podium and pit-area refurbishments plus upgraded Wi‑Fi and cellular networks in 2026, in part to accommodate Cadillac’s entry to F1.
  • The event’s Monarch Butterfly initiative will place more than 30,000 seed-paper butterflies in the stands, create jobs for local women and target planting 8,000 oyamel trees in 2026 in coordination with the FIA.
