About the Circuit
At 2,240 metres above sea level, Mexico City is the highest venue on the F1 calendar. The thin air dramatically reduces aerodynamic downforce and engine power, creating unique technical challenges. The iconic Foro Sol stadium section, where the track passes through a baseball stadium, creates one of the most electric atmospheres in world motorsport.
