Mexico City's mayor Clara Brugada has leaked that a contract extension to continue hosting Formula 1 will be signed on April 30.
The Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez circuit returned to the F1 calendar in 2015 following a 23-year hiatus, and has remained a regular fixture ever since.
Mexico City's current contract was set to expire following this year's race, the first since it returned to the calendar without home hero Sergio Perez on the grid.
However, according to ESPN, the mayor has confirmed during a press conference that a new contract will be signed next week.
"On April 30th, we'll be signing the agreement with Formula 1 next week , so that's good news," said Brugada.
F1 is yet to officially announce the new contract, although an announcement can now be expected following the comments from Mexico City's mayor.
