Circuito San Juan Villicum, motorsport venue in Argentina
Circuito San Juan Villicum is a motorsport racing track in San Juan Province, in western Argentina, set against the backdrop of the Andes foothills. The track runs through an open landscape and features several layout configurations that allow it to host different racing series, from national championships to international competitions.
The circuit opened on 14 October 2018 with the World Superbike Championship, and the first car race followed on 18 November 2018 with Turismo Carretera and TC Pista. The track was designed by Leonardo Stella, an architect specialising in racing circuits, and was built by moving more than 700,000 cubic metres of earth to create its climbs and descents. It has since hosted rounds of TC2000, Top Race V6 and TCR South America.
Motorsport has a devoted following in San Juan, and race days draw fans from across Argentina and neighboring countries. The circuit acts as a meeting point where local pride and a shared passion for racing come together in a very direct way.
The track is accessible to visitors mainly during official race events, as access outside those dates is limited. Grandstands are placed at several points around the circuit, giving spectators the chance to watch from different sections of the track.
The circuit's undulating profile is not natural: more than 700,000 cubic metres of earth were moved to create the climbs and descents along the 4,266-metre layout. The track was designed by Leonardo Stella, an architect specialising in racing circuits, and was built to seek A1 homologation.
