It’s possible to get to the circuit by bus, train and AVE, though in my opinion only the first option makes sense, as the others you need to walk 45 minutes from the station to the circuit!īus: during the Grand Prix there is a special service bus that leaves from Barcelona city centre to the East area of the circuit. The exits 14 and 15 connect to the C-17 road.
You just need to follow the C-17 road (exit Montmeló), or the AP-7 highway (exits 13, 14 and 15). Source: Google Maps Getting to Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya By car The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya is located 32km away from Barcelona, in Montmeló. Now, it’s also possible to take part in a pit stop simulation (the pit stop challenge), in which you change the car tires, pretend that you are on the podium and get a picture of yourself, hospitality lounges, and even to adventure yourself up in the air above other fans’ heads! Where in the world The good news is that it’s expanding and improving, this year they started the new Fan Zone in Barcelona, with more additions to the last attractions. It’s one of my favorite areas, and I always stop by in every race we go. The Fan Zone has been gaining popularity ever since it started a few years back.

This year they sold Heineken alcohol free beer and for an unbelievable expensive price. The only weird thing and what most fans complain about, is that no alcoholic beverages are sold at the circuit, and it’s also prohibited to bring them with you. They serve hot dogs (for around 5 Euros), sandwiches, fries, ice cream, and in some stands you can find paella. The only problem was drying your hands, but the weather was so hot that I didn’t mind having my hands wet for a few minutes.Īs in every circuit, the food is a bit pricey, and options are a bit limited ( Hockenheim was an exception for me).
Lines were easily avoidable, there was always a staff organizing and cleaning them, and as mentioned above, there was always toilet paper. I was over all very happy with the bathrooms, especially considering that I was pregnant while attending the race and had to go several times to different ones. I was very happy with the cleanliness of the circuit, there was always someone emptying the trash (know that in some circuits the lack of cleanliness can be very annoying, like in Monza), there was always paper in the toilets, which impressed me the most, and if you see garbage on the floor that’s mainly the fans themselves to blame for. From the access to the parking lot, the seating places (most are uncovered), bathrooms, cleanliness, food and drink options, security, to open areas where it’s possible to enjoy a little bit of the shadows under the trees. The circuit offers great infrastructure, and it’s very organized.
