What is the name of the fictional speedway where Lightning McQueen races in Cars 3?

The story behind the answer

Lightning McQueen races at the Florida International Super Speedway in Pixar's Cars 3.

The speedway hosts the opening race, where McQueen faces a new generation of technologically advanced competitors led by Jackson Storm. Storm's dominance helps convince McQueen's sponsor that his career needs a major change.

The film then follows McQueen's attempt to regain competitive form. He trains with Cruz Ramirez, studies racing techniques, and reconnects with the legacy of Doc Hudson, whose earlier career becomes an important source of motivation.

The Florida International Super Speedway is fictional, although its presentation draws on the look and spectacle of real American stock-car venues. It should not be confused with the Motor Speedway of the South, the fictional track featured in the first Cars film.
