Argentine Grand Prix - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article (409 words)
The Argentine Grand Prix was a round of the Formula One championship, held intermittently from 1953 to 1998.
Argentine president Juan Perón was the driving force behind the creation of the circuit, after seeing the success of the country's own Juan Manuel Fangio.
The Grand Prix remained in Argentina through 1981, its demise in 1982 brought on by the Falklands War and by Reutemann's retirement.
