Estadio GNP Seguros

In 1993, four temporary stadium seatings were placed in the banked curve of the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez due to the lack of venues for large music concerts. The then-provisional field resulted as an agreement between Paul McCartney's manager, Barry Marshall, and Alejandro Soberón, the CEO of OCESA, after the concert usage of the Estadio Azteca was denied to the singer for a date on the New World Tour. Four years later, it was permanently built and renamed as Foro Sol, the name coming from a popular beer brand of the Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma group that had purchased the naming rights of the venue.

Since 2015, the stadium hosts the Mexican Grand Prix and since 2016 the Mexico City ePrix, becoming part of the track and noted for its unique nature, increasing as well the circuit capacity by 25,000 spectators.

In 2019, the park hosted the Race of Champions and Stadium Super Trucks; the latter served as both a competing ROC category and standalone event to conclude its 2018 season.

On 14 and 15 June 2025, the stadium hosted races from NASCAR's Xfinity Series and Cup Series, marking the first time in six years that a top 3 division NASCAR race was held outside the United States and the first top 3 division race in Mexico since 2008.

It was announced in October 2023 that the stadium would close temporarily throughout most of 2024 for renovations. News surfaced in January 2024 that the venue would change its name from Foro Sol to Estadio GNP after the renovations, following a new deal between OCESA and GNP Seguros. The name change was announced officially on 18 June 2024.

Baseball

The stadium was inaugurated as a baseball park on 2 June 2000 with a match between the Tigres de México and the Diablos Rojos del México. Both teams had previously played in the Parque del Seguro Social, that was demolished in order to build a shopping mall. Tigres played the 2000 and 2001 seasons, winning the Mexican League championship back to back. The next year, Tigres moved to Puebla City and changed their name to Tigres de la Angelópolis and the Diablos Rojos remained as the park's only tenants. The venue was nicknamed Infierno Solar (Solar Hell) while the Diablos Rojos were the only tenants in it.

The ballpark hosted three Major League Baseball exhibition games: Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Tampa Bay Rays in 2001, New York Mets vs. Los Angeles Dodgers in 2003, and Florida Marlins vs. Houston Astros in 2004. Foro Sol hosted as well the Pool B of the 2009 World Baseball Classic contested by Australia, Cuba, South Africa, and Mexico.

In 2014, due to the return of the Mexican Grand Prix to the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, Diablos Rojos played their last season at the stadium, since the venue needed renovations in order to host Formula 1. Diablos Rojos moved to the smaller Estadio Fray Nano.

Motorsport

The stadium has been a prominent part of the Formula One Mexican Grand Prix since the country returned to the race calendar in 2015, with the final sector of the circuit running through and around it. The podium is also contained within the stadium area, with the many fans joining in with the celebrations at the conclusion of each grand prix.

Formula E also races on the site in an alternate track configuration. Beginning in 2025, the stadium will also be used as part of a NASCAR race at the circuit.
