Miami International Autodrome, Street circuit at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, United States
Miami International Autodrome is a street circuit in Miami Gardens, Florida, that winds through a mixed area of parking lots and public roads around Hard Rock Stadium. The course takes drivers through tight passages alongside the stadium and across wide sections on paved surfaces that usually serve as parking spaces.
Authorities and race organizers negotiated for several years before agreeing on a layout that would minimize disruption to local traffic. The final design was completed shortly before the first use and allowed motorsport in a region that previously had no permanent racing facility.
This track uses public roads around the stadium and reflects a typically North American connection between motorsport and football tradition. The temporary facility is assembled and dismantled several times a year, allowing the grounds to serve other purposes between events.
The circuit is closed to regular traffic on race days and reopened for public use afterward. Visitors will find grandstands at several points along the course, with views varying across different corners and straights.
Part of the course runs under a bridge that normally guides spectators to the stadium, creating a brief covered section. This area changes the light conditions for drivers and provides a suddenly dry passage amid wet sections when it rains.
