Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya

The Spanish Grand Prix at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya blends F1 action with an eclectic Spanish atmosphere. Its modest beginnings as a production car race were interrupted by the First World War and again by the Spanish Civil War. The Spanish Grand Prix was successfully revived in 1967 and has since been a regular on the Formula One calendar. Held at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya (formerly known as the Circuit de Catalunya), the Spanish Grand Prix is a challenge for both car and driver. The track’s mix of high and low-speed corners and bumpy road surface makes for a physically demanding and mechanically challenging race. This 4.6-kilometre circuit, just 30 kilometres from Barcelona, is a mix of fast straights and tight corners, pushing drivers and cars to the limit. Whether you’re a seasoned F1 fanatic or a first-time spectator, this race promises edge-of-your-seat action. 

Spain is about experiences. From Barcelona’s iconic Sagrada Familia to tapas in the Gothic Quarter, this is the ultimate getaway. Witness the Spanish GP and soak in the culture, food, and history that make this destination unbeatable. 

Did You Know? The most successful driver here to date is Michael Schumacher, with a total of six victories. Among the current drivers, Kimi Raikkonen, Fernando Alonso, Sebastian Vettel, Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Massa have all claimed victories at Catalunya.
