Nuevo AUTODROMO para el GP de México F1 2015 (Saúl Alejandro Martinez)

When: November 1   Where: Mexico City

In 2015, Formula 1 will return to Mexico for the first time since 1992. The incredible racing event will take place on Mexico’s Day of the Dead, which is when family and friends gather together to pray for the loved ones who have passed on. It is of historical importance that this years Formula 1 event takes place on such a day.

The Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez circuit gets its unique name from brothers Ricardo and Redro Rodriguez. The magic happened when older brother Ricardo, age 19, drove for Ferrari, inspiring the decision to build a 5-kilometre circuit in the public park Magdalena Mixhuca in east Mexico City. It was also due to Ricardo’s rise as a professional racer that helped to build love and public awareness for the sport of car racing. Unfortunately, sometimes with great success, comes great tragedy. Years later, both brothers on separate accounts while racing, tragically crashed and died. The meaning of the event is obvious for the community of people in Mexico City. You will no doubt enjoy attending this heartfelt and exciting occasion, with crowds estimated to reach an estimated 200,000 people.
