Les 12 Heures de Sebring 1973 se déroulent sur le Sebring International Raceway situé en Floride. Il est composé de deux longues lignes droites, séparées par des courbes rapides ainsi que quelques chicanes. Le tracé actuel diffère de celui de l'époque. Ce tracé a un grand passé historique car il est utilisé pour des courses automobiles depuis 1950. Ce circuit est célèbre car il a accueilli la Formule 1.
