Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix

The Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix is a scheduled Formula One motor racing event that will take place at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. It is the first out of two Grands Prix that are scheduled to take place in Spain in, along with the Spanish Grand Prix at the Madring.

History

The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya was originally scheduled to be used as the venue for the Spanish Grand Prix until 2026. However, Spain's capital city, Madrid, was nominated as a new host of Formula One, with the Madring scheduled to make its debut in 2026 and therefore taking the Spanish Grand Prix name. As a result, the circuit's 2026 event was renamed to the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix. It will be the first time Spain hosts two Grand Prix since the season, the second of which was held under the name of the European Grand Prix at the Valencia Street Circuit.
