Autódromo Eusebio Marcilla, autodromo argentino
The Autódromo Eusebio Marcilla is a motorsport racing track in Junín, Buenos Aires province, built with modern asphalt surface and featuring seven turns. The facility includes grandstands, pit areas, and display screens for spectators and racing teams.
The track originally opened in 1947 as a dirt circuit and received its current name in 1971 after a legendary local racing driver. A major redesign in 2011 modernized the layout and enabled the circuit to become part of Argentina's national racing calendar.
The track carries the name of a legendary Argentine racing driver and represents local passion for motorsport. On race days, people from the region gather to watch competitions and share their enthusiasm for speed and cars together.
The track is located about one kilometer from Junín city center and is well signposted from the main road toward Gómez Lake. Visitors should arrive early on race days as the grounds fill up quickly and events offer an immersive motorsport experience.
Eusebio Marcilla, the driver the track is named after, was known for his generosity and strict sporting principles. One of his most notable acts was stopping during a major race to help his rival Juan Manuel Fangio, even though this endangered his own chances.
