The Circuito (Parco) Palermo (commonly known as the Palermo Circuit), was a Grand Prix circuit in Buenos Aires (Argentina). The 4.865 km (3.023 mi) circuit used a layout of public roads within the north-end of the Palermo park complex (adjacent to the Hipodromo Argentino), to host the Buenos Aires Grand Prix from 1948 to 1950.
Palermo was the site of the General Juan Perón / Eva Duarte de Perón Grand Prix series, hosting five (of twelve) alternating editions (The first was held at the Retiro circuit in 1947). [1] [2] [3]
