Hello Anssi,
Would you like to share how Cent OS team determine the mirror location by an IP address? Let's pick an example, softlayer has an IP test on Mexico (speedtest.mex01.softlayer.com), but yes, the traffic is through US than directly to Mexico. Possible it's IP Transit, since MIE (Mexico Internet Exchange) have same traceroute details.

The good news is, I can get result from atlas probe, 10 probes on mexico are active.

Measurements to mie.mx https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/7930313/#!probes
Any hints from traceroute above? Hope it helps.
Notes: Is there any FAQ from mirror team about choosing mirror location determine by an IP Address? Correct me if I'm wrong.

hello,
the ISP is peering locally with mexican isps, only the international traffic goes throught US
Let's get back to this when you can verifiably demonstrate a traceroute from some other Mexican host to centos.mexico.machost.co without the traffic going through U.S. in between. Does this sound fair?
