Autodromo Oscar y Juan Galvez

The Autodromo Oscar y Juan Galvez is a 2.6-mile (4.18-km) raceway paved on flat terrain in 1952 as part of an initiative coming from the Argentinian president at the time, Juan Domingo Perón, to create a state-of-the-art racing facility to serve as the venue of the Formula 1 Argentine Grand Prix. The road course sits in Villa Riachuelo, one of the suburbs of Buenos Aires, Argentina. High-profile international competitions such as the Formula 1 and FIM Grand Prix used the Autodromo's raceway until 1998. The humid subtropical climate of Buenos Aires offers hot and humid summers in December and cold winters in July, with an even distribution of rainfall during autumn, summer, and spring. 

The Autodromo Oscar y Juan Galvez contains 16 turns, with several tight-angle corners offering a tough challenge for inexperienced drivers. There are tons of passing opportunities throughout the circuit's trajectory, mainly in the straight segments scattered among the turns. Races start/finish on the main straight, after which racers face the first sharp corner at turn one. Turn two is a fast-paced sweeper leading into Curva Confiteria, a tight left-hander heading into a short straight. Turns four, five, and six combine to form Curva Reutmann, a right-hand turn leading racers into the back straightaway. The sweeping Curva Ascari comes next, and a sneaking sector of five turns leads into the Tobogan and later into the Horquilla Alfredo Parga, the heaviest braking spot of the circuit.
