Overview
- The 'Madring' circuit, located around Madrid's IFEMA center in Valdebebas, will debut on the Formula 1 calendar in 2026.
- The hybrid track combines street and permanent sections, spanning 3.36 miles with 22 corners, two more than initially expected.
- Key features include a 589-meter start/finish straight, a 24% banked corner named La Monumental, and high-speed sections reaching up to 340 km/h.
- Drivers will navigate an 8% gradient drop at Turns 5 and 6 and decelerate from 320 km/h to 100 km/h before entering the first corner.
- The circuit will adopt the Spanish Grand Prix title, displacing Barcelona's Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya despite its existing 2026 contract.
