The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya is located in Montmeló, north of Barcelona, in Catalonia. Built in 1991 on the eve of the Barcelona Olympic Games, it should not be confused with the Montjuïc circuit located within the city of Barcelona itself, which hosted the Spanish Grand Prix from 1969 to 1975. Montjuïc was closed the same year following a tragic accident that caused the death of 5 spectators after Rolf Stommelen's Hill GH1 literally flew over the barriers... The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya is primarily known for hosting the Spanish Formula 1 Grand Prix and the Catalan MotoGP Grand Prix every year. With its long straights and varied corners, it is also used for numerous tests, making it one of the circuits best known to drivers.
