Overview
- Barcelona will host the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix in 2028, 2030 and 2032, alternating with Spa-Francorchamps in 2027, 2029 and 2031.
- The Montmeló round is rebranded as the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix, with the 2026 race set for June 12-14.
- Madrid’s new street event holds a long-term contract through 2035, with its first race scheduled for September 11-13, 2026.
- F1 cited recent investments at Barcelona — a circuit rooftop, new hospitality space and extensive solar panels — plus hosting a five-day shakedown test as key factors.
- The rotation curtails Spa’s near-term hopes of a full-time return and fits F1’s ~24-race cap, as Zandvoort exits after 2026 and Portimão returns in 2027–28.
