Formula 1 to return to Mexico in 2015

By , Reporter
Mexico will return to the Formula 1 calendar in 2015 after it is confirmed that the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez will host a race next year.

Mexico's 23-year absence from the Formula 1 calendar is poised to end following the announcement that the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez will be included on next year's race calendar.

The deal was confirmed by events company Corporacion Interamericana de Entretenimiento [CIE] at a press conference today.

"Start your engines, F1 will return to Mexico next year. This is Mexico's time," CIE president Alejandro Soberon told reporters.

Formula 1 CEO Bernie Ecclestone was not present for the annoucement, but did send a message welcoming the return of the Mexican Grand Prix.
