Trying to figure out where race mile 534 crosses highway 1. How close is this to Catavina?

It looks like it is a little over 30 miles from El Rosario and about 40 some odd miles from Catavina...

It's at KM111 on Hwy 1. There will be a BFG pit in the area. Catavina is at KM180 which is 70K to the south or 40+ miles as Pacifico said.

Where the course hits Highway 1, racers have a 60mph speed zone until the course leaves the highway around RM539. Also near RM534 is a BFG pit, guaranteed to have lots of action until there isn't. Racing in that part of the world will be middle-of-the-night.

Km. 111 is between Loncheria El Descanso (Km. 108+) and Hector's Monument (Km. 116.5).
