The 14th round of the 2026 Formula One championship introduces drivers to unfamiliar territory as they tackle a Madrid street circuit making its inaugural appearance on the F1 calendar.
The Circuito de Madring, marking the first Grand Prix in the Spanish capital in four decades, presents a significant challenge for drivers. This 22-corner, 3.365-mile hybrid circuit merges public-road sections with purpose-built infrastructure, featuring an extremely fast opening sector and substantial elevation changes throughout.
Kimi Antonelli delivered an impressive comeback from the back of the grid to win the Italian Grand Prix on home soil, extending his championship lead over Mercedes teammate George Russell to 66 points.
The Spanish Grand Prix is scheduled for Sunday, September 13, at 3:00 p.m. CET at the Circuito de Madring in Madrid. This translates to a 9:00 a.m. ET or 6:00 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada, a 2:00 p.m. BST start in the UK, and an 11:00 p.m. AEST start for Australian fans.
