The Circuito de Madring is a hybrid circuit around the IFEMA exhibition centre in Madrid. It uses both public roads and non-public land, which makes it a street circuit. The site lies close to Madrid-Barajas Airport and can be reached on Line 8 of the Madrid Metro. The layout was designed by Studio Dromo. The name, a blend of Madrid and "ring", was announced in March 2025.
The lap has 22 corners and runs clockwise. Its features include La Monumental, a banked corner with a maximum of 13.5 degrees of banking, two tunnel sections beneath an elevated motorway, and a steep downhill stretch between Turns 7 and 9. Two straight mode zones are located on the main straight and between Turns 3 and 4. The circuit is made up of fast sections such as the Valdebebas linked corners and technical sections such as the "Bunker". The paddock is the first covered one in Formula One. The initial spectator capacity is 110,000.
Since 2026, the Madring has hosted the Formula One Spanish Grand Prix. It takes over from the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, which had staged the race since 1991. The previous Formula One race in Madrid took place in 1981 at the Circuito del Jarama, about 18 kilometres to the north. Formula 2 and Formula 3 also race at the venue. Kimi Antonelli won the first Formula One race at the Madring, the 2026 Spanish Grand Prix, for Mercedes. After that race, drivers criticised the limited opportunities for overtaking.
