The 2012 United States Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at the Circuit of the Americas near Austin, Texas on November 18, 2012. The race was the penultimate round of the 2012 Formula One championship. It was the inaugural race at the circuit, and the first time the United States Grand Prix had been held since 2007.

Sebastian Vettel started the race from pole position. Lewis Hamilton won the race, his last for McLaren before his move to Mercedes, with Vettel finishing second and Fernando Alonso in third. Vettel's second place gave Red Bull Racing enough points to secure their third consecutive World Constructors' Championship.
