The Autódromo Las Américas is now Nacam and FIA approved. Julian Abed, representative of the organizations, inspected the race track currently in its final construction phase. In his opinion, the new Santo Domingo race track will be the best in the Caribbean. "The Las Americas race track fulfills all the requirements. We have no doubt that it will become the best track in the area, and one of the best in Latin America," he said. He visited the track with J.M. Hidalgo and Luís Miguel Gerardino, of the Autódromo Las Américas, engineer Ludovino Fernández, builder of the track, and Henry Krauss, president of the Dominican Automobile Federation.
