About the Circuit
Barcelona-Catalunya is one of the most well-known circuits in F1 due to extensive pre-season testing held here for decades. Its variety of corner types—from the high-speed Turn 3 to the slow final chicane—makes it an excellent all-round test of a car's capabilities. The long Turn 3 right-hander is one of the most aerodynamically demanding corners in F1.
