The Formula 1 Madrid circuit layout has been revealed to the public, with Carlos Sainz announced as an ambassador for the 2026 Spanish Grand Prix event.
An event hosted by the organisers behind the race at the so-called Madring saw the confirmed layout of the circuit, designed by Italian firm Dromo, via a digitalised lap.
The 22-turn circuit – a fifth of which is on public roads – incorporates a number of Madrid’s landmarks, including the Hortaleza neighbourhood and the training ground of footballing giants Real Madrid.
The Las Ventas bullfighting arena, the IFEMA North Convention Centre and the King Juan Carlos I Park are also some of the other sights that surround the circuit.
A notable excerpt of the track is La Monumental, a sweeping right-handed banked curve, similar to the banked Luydenyk corner on the Zandvoort circuit, added by Dromo.
Construction of the circuit is expected to commence next month, with the race mooted to be held in September next year.
Previous fears that the tender process to find constructors for the circuit were quelled last week with the announcement of a joint venture between Spanish firm ACCIONA and French company Eiffage Construction.
Prior to the deal, Madrid Mayor Jose Luis Marintez-Almeida was required to publicly call for calm, saying the race “will be held and will be a success.”
Sainz ambassadorial role provides further excitement for F1 Madrid
The presence of Williams driver Sainz added excitement to the occasion unveiling the Madring layout, who is due to be one of two home drivers at the race, along with Fernando Alonso.
Born in Madrid, Sainz was confirmed as an ambassador for the event, and took in plans of the circuit, as well as waving a chequered flag for a photo opportunity.
The Spanish GP in Madrid is expected to be held in September next year, and will be, initially at least, the second of two races in the country.
The Circuit de-Barcelona Catalunya, which has been present on the calendar since 1991, will see out the final year of its F1 calendar in 2026 and is expected to drop away ahead of the ’27 campaign.
The Madring will be the seventh track the country has seen host a World Championship Grand Prix.

Las Ventas bullring is 12.5 KM across town from the IFEMA complex which hosts the circuit. Apart from being a meaningless reference, that the organisers should choose the bullring to orientate the location is a mistake, presumably they are unaware how little credit bullfighting brings to Spain internationally.
To date, this project feels like a lash-up, where the main gain for Madrid is Barcelona´s loss. How you overtake on that rinky-dink simulated circuit graphic is a moot point – slow corners being the dominant feature.
