Piñatas Racing, a Celebration that Combines Motorsport with Mexican Tradition

Piñatas Racing is a contest where you can showcase your creation at the Mexico City Grand Prix and meet Checo Pérez.

The Mexico City Grand Prix 2023 is a Formula 1 motor race that takes place annually at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez and is part of the Formula 1 World Championship. It was first held in 1962 (as a non-championship race), included from 1963 to 1970, then from 1986 to 1992, and since 2015, it has become a major event.

The 2023 edition of the Grand Prix will be filled with piñatas in a competition called “Piñatas Racing.” As the name suggests, participants will have to create an original piñata related to the top category of world motorsport, where Sergio “Checo” Pérez competes.

In Piñatas Racing, all participants will have the opportunity to showcase their skills in creating piñatas, just like the ones used in birthdays, posadas, or any other Mexican celebration. The top five piñatas will be exhibited during the Mexico City Grand Prix at the Cathedral of Mexican Motorsport.

Anyone can compete, regardless of age or experience in making piñatas. Participation is free, but the piñata must be related to F1 and the Mexico City Grand Prix. The contest is open to residents of Mexico, regardless of nationality.
