Argentinian president Javier Milei pursues return of Formula 1 to Buenos Aires

Argentinian president Javier Milei intends to push for the return of Formula 1 to the country after a near 30-year absence. The government interest is driven by the growing popularity of Alpine driver Franco Colapinto. Argentina last hosted an F1 race in 1998 at the Autodromo Oscar y Juan Galvez. While the government is signaling strong interest in hosting the series, industry observers suggest that any immediate return to the Buenos Aires circuit remains premature. The venue has been undergoing changes since it last featured on the calendar. No formal timeline or agreement has been established to bring the grand prix back to the region.
