NASCAR is finalizing a deal that would add a Cup Series race in Mexico City in 2025, an event that would mark the sport’s first points race outside of the United States in 67 years, The Athletic reported Monday.
The deal is expected to be announced Tuesday in Mexico City, per the report.
The race would be held at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez road course in Mexico City on June 15, 2025, with an Xfinity race held the day before, according to the report. The course is also home to the Mexico City Grand Prix F1 race.
The race would come at the expense of Richmond Raceway losing one of its two races, per The Athletic.
The race would mark the first international event since NASCAR’s top circuit raced in Toronto in 1958.
