Mexico City, April 30, 2025.– The FORMULA 1 MEXICO CITY GRAND PRIX Presented by Heineken will remain part of the calendar of the highest category of motorsport until 2028, thanks to the coordinated efforts between the Government of Mexico City, Formula 1 and Corporación Interamericana de Entretenimiento (CIE). The new agreement covers the 2026, 2027, and 2028 editions, ensuring that the Mexico City Grand Prix will continue as one of the most emblematic races of the year, known for its vibrant atmosphere, passionate fans, and unforgettable entertainment experience since 2015.
“Estamos muy contentos de anunciar la renovación de este gran evento deportivo. El Gran Premio de México es una de las carreras que más recursos genera en esta ciudad, que más turistas atrae, donde se vive el automovilismo con mucha pasión. Prevemos que vamos a seguir aumentando estos grandes números de derrama económica y asistencia, ya que es uno de los eventos culturales y turísticos más importantes que tenemos en el año”, mencionó Clara Brugada, Jefa de Gobierno de la Ciudad de México, stated Clara Brugada, Head of Government of Mexico City.
“It is incredible news that the Mexico City Grand Prix will remain on the calendar until 2028. Formula 1 is about energy and passion, and it is amazing to feel the electric atmosphere from the fans every time we visit this incredible city. I would like to thank Alejandro Soberón for his continued leadership, the Head of Government of Mexico City, Clara Brugada, for her unwavering support, and the local businesses who share our vision for this fantastic event. I look forward to our continued collaboration and seeing the incredible Mexican fans in October”, mentioned Stefano Domenicali, President and CEO of Formula 1.
“We are very excited to announce that the Mexico City Grand Prix will be held for three more years. We are deeply grateful for the invaluable support of the Government of Mexico City, from the Head of Government of Mexico City, Clara Brugada, to our President, Claudia Sheinbaum, as well as Stefano Domenicali from Formula 1, who have made it possible to continue bringing Formula 1 to our country. This not only contributes to the economic development of Mexico City, but also promotes our city, as well as our country, in a significant way worldwide. Together, we will continue to work hard to ensure that fans get the most out of an event that offers a unique live entertainment experience, and which for almost 10 years has shown the world the quality of the events we organise in this city,” said Alejandro Soberón Kuri, President and CEO of CIE.
Up to the 2024 edition, the Mexico City Grand Prix has generated a cumulative economic impact and media exposure value for Mexico of 7.4 billion dollars. Additionally, it has created more than 82,000 jobs, equivalent to a cumulative wage impact of 621 million dollars.
On the other hand, one of the key players in the success of the Mexican Grand Prix are the fans, who have crowded the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez in each of the editions held since 2015, with 3.2 million attendees during these nearly 10 years. During the last race alone, an entry of 404,958 fans was registered over the three days of the event, breaking the attendance record.
This 2025 will be a very special edition of the race, as it celebrates 10 years since the return of Formula 1 to Mexico. A decade that confirms the Mexico City Grand Prix as the most important annual sporting event in the country and a key driver for the economy of Mexico City, also celebrating the continuation of the F1ESTA for three more years.
