The Autodromo Ciudad de Dolores is a 1.95-mile (3.13-km) racing facility home to a wide variety of local and national motorsports events, located at a three-hour ride south of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The race track is narrow in all of its trajectories, having plenty of open spaces and ample runoffs all around.

The track layout favors risk-takers and has a good balance between sweeping turns and tight-angle corners that defy the driver's maneuvering skills.
  
Races at the Autodromo Ciudad de Dolores start and finish in the same spot at the middle of its front straight. There are seven corners in the road course, running counterclockwise through flat but bumpy terrain. Turn one is a fast-paced sweeper taken at 120 km/h (74 mph). Corners two and three are tighter and harder to tackle, forcing drivers to heavily downshift to reduce speed to about 60 km/h (37 mph). The sweeping turn number four is longer and allows velocity to go up to 100 km/h (62 mph) again. The heaviest braking spot comes at corner five, with drivers reducing speed from 140 km/h (86 mph) to 70 km/h (43 mp) in a few meters.
