Welcome to the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, located just outside the vibrant city of Barcelona, the venue for the Spanish Grand Prix.
This circuit's variety of corner types, straight lengths, and elevation changes make it a comprehensive test of a car's aerodynamic efficiency and mechanical grip.
It has been an everpresent venue on the Formula 1 calendar since 1991, with racing and testing heading to the track for over three decades, meaning teams and drivers know it inside out.
Circuit Overview:
The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya is a 14-turn, 4.657 km (2.894 miles) example of almost everything an F1 driver will encounter on the calendar.
Sector 1 begins with heavy braking into Turn 1, and the sweeping uphill Turn 3 concludes with the endless Repsol right-hander as Sector 2 begins.
Undulations, twists, and a blast of DRS into a possible overtaking spot at Turn 10, La Caixa, makes up the second sector, and it all finishes with high-speed right-hand corners in Sector 3 to shoot the car out onto the long pit straight.
