It looks like another street-ish circuit is on the horizon for 2026 and beyond.

According to veteran F1 journalist Joe Saward, the Spanish GP will take place at a new track in Madrid rather than Barcelona.

The circuit will be situated around the IFEMA convention center near Barajas Airport.

The deal is reported to be for 10 years, which spells an end for the racing at Barcelona.

The circuit will be a semi-permanent venue, with Saward likening it to Montreal and Melbourne - which aren’t 100 percent street circuits like Monaco and Singapore.

Over the past 12 months, rumors of Madrid's interest in hosting the GP have swirled. F1 brought their F1 Exhibition to the IFEMA this past year from March to August.
