The Argentine TC2000 Championship hosted three races at Punta del Este in 2007, 2008 and 2010.

For season two, the circuit was slightly modified. The first corner was changed, instead of a right-left chicane it is now left-right. The idea behind this change is to make the pit exit much safer than last year, where the cars were exiting the pits on the racing line. This also slightly reduced the lap length to .[4]
