The Madring, officially Circuito de Madring, is a planned street circuit around the IFEMA Exhibition Centre in Madrid, Spain. It will host the Formula One Spanish Grand Prix starting in 2026, joining the list of circuits that have hosted world championship races since 1950, displacing the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, which has hosted the race since 1991. The Madring will have a capacity of 110,000 with the possibility of expansion to 140,000.
The circuit will have a layout of 5.474 km and will be used to host Formula One, Formula 2 and Formula 3 events. With its construction, it will be the heir to the Circuito del Jarama as a racing circuit when the last Spanish Formula One Grand Prix was held in Madrid in 1981, becoming the seventh Spanish circuit to host a race in the highest category of world motorsport after the Pedralbes, Jarama, Montjuïc, Jerez, Montmeló and Valencia circuits. |
