NASCAR heads back to the United States after a trip to Mexico City. The first Mexico race may not be the last. Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez hosted Xfinity Series and Cup Series events over the weekend.

NASCAR's recent visit to Mexico changed the perception some drivers had of the country and delivered two races full of excitement — something that has been lacking at times in Formula 1 events at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez. Despite a thrilling weekend a great enthusiasm from the fans, the future of the event remains uncertain for 2026.

NASCAR's first Cup Series international points race since 1958 left a strong impression on the garage, making a return in 2026 feel likely.
