Antonio Miranda Circuit is a motorcycle speedway stadium on the eastern outskirts of Bahía Blanca.[1] It is located on Bermúdez 6000, adjacent (on the eastern side) of Autódromo Ezequiel Crisol. It is operated by the Automoto Club Bahía Blanca,[2] who operate under the Federation called the Confederacion Argentina de Motociclismo Deportivo.
History
[edit]In 2012, the stadium hosted arguably its most significant event to date, when it held the final two rounds of the 2012 Speedway Under-21 World Championship on the 3 and 10 November respectively.[3][4]
The stadium also hosts rounds of both versions of the Argentine Individual Speedway Championship; the Campeonato Argentino de Speedway (the winter national championships) and the Campeonato Internacional Argentino (the summer International Championships).[5]
The popularity of speedway in the area has increased since 2020, which has led to the construction of two large stands on the home and back straights.[6]
