Major infrastructure updates at the revamped Autodromo Oscar y Juan Galvez in Buenos Aires are moving at a rapid pace ahead of the circuit's much-anticipated return to the premier class calendar. Argentina is set to host a Grand Prix for the first time since 1999, acting as a crucial round on the upcoming racing schedule.
According to reports from venue visitor Martin Urruty, the paving process is well underway across the historic layout. The new asphalt surface consists of three distinct layers, with the final top layer specially engineered to handle the immense power of MotoGP machines when the action kicks off this coming April. Initial paving has already been completed across roughly two kilometers of the racing line.
Beyond the track surface, massive civil engineering efforts have transformed the paddock infrastructure. A brand-new tunnel passing underneath Turn 1 stretches over 400 meters and features dual lanes. This addition ensures that team trucks and logistical heavy vehicles can easily navigate in and out of the paddock simultaneously without causing operational bottlenecks.

Grandstand renovations and modern pit box completions are also reaching their final stages to welcome the world championship paddock. Meanwhile, local authorities in Buenos Aires are simultaneously pushing forward with ambitious talks to eventually bring Formula 1 back to the South American nation, eyeing potential reserve status on future global calendars.
The upcoming Argentine round will form part of an intense South American double-header following the event at GP Brasil, before the championship travels north to the United States weeks later. Read our in-depth analysis and stay updated with all the latest paddock news right here on Sportrik.
