Termas de Río Hondo GP
Termas de Río Hondo GP Notas:
Autódromo Termas de Río Hondo is a 4.805 km motorsport circuit in Santiago del Estero Province, Argentina. The circuit was originally built by the provincial government at a cost of 144 million pesos and opened in 2008. It was officially inaugurated on May 11, 2008, during a visit by Argentina's Touring Car Racing championship, drawing more than 65,000 spectators. The traditional Turismo Carretera series proved immensely popular at the inaugural meeting.
The circuit underwent a complete overhaul and rebuild in 2012-2013, based on design by Italian circuit designer Jarno Zaffelli using sophisticated computer simulation software to bring it up to FIM Grade A standards. This paved the way for MotoGP to debut there in 2014. The circuit became synonymous with thrilling MotoGP races ever since. On February 6, 2021, the circuit's pit buildings were destroyed by fire, but the grandstand, media centre, and pit garages were reconstructed before the 2022 Argentine Republic motorcycle Grand Prix. The 4.8-kilometer layout features 14 turns and includes a motor racing museum dedicated to Argentine ace Juan Manuel Fangio at the far end of the pit lane.
