Madrid and the world of Imola: the war and the 2026 F1 calendar
La Fórmula 1 ha was published the official calendar for the 2026 time, constará de 24 Grandes Premios, including an important new introduction: the incorporación del Gran Premio de Madrid, mientras que el histórico Gran Premio de Imola, en Italia, ha sido eliminado. I have decided to make a quick negative reaction to auto enthusiasts, you can consider excluding Imola as a major category for classification.
2026 calendar details
The start time in Australia is on March 6, isolated from the races in China and Japan. Luego, la Fórmula 1 se desplazará al Medio Oriente para los Grandes Premios de Baréin e Arabia Saudita, antes de llgar a Estados Unidos para el Gran Premio de Miami. Tras la carrera en Canadá, la F1 registered in Europa para su tramo Europeo, que incluirá las carreras en Monaco, España (Barcelona), Austria, Gran Bretaña, Bélgica, Hungría, Países Bajos, Italia (Monza), España (Madrid), and Azerbaijan. The competition will then push Asia to the Gran Premio de Singapur, for entry at Estados Unidos for Austin, Mexico and Brasil, and the final with races in Las Vegas, Qatar and Abu Dabi.
Madrid has been in Spain for the weekend, now with Barcelona, since 1979 when it was announced that it would be holding a Grand Prix in the Capital of Spain, in the new Circuito Madring, which combines urban and non-urban sectors. This is the dispute on 11/13/2026 and then the twelfth debate of the camp.
Fans’ reaction
The removal of Imola, one of the most prominent symbols and the question of Europa, has caused frustration among fans. Many are considering the historical re-enactment of a new urban circuit in Madrid as a “vergüenza” and a traditional method of F1. Some comments on the number of fans include:
“Madrid sobre Imola es una vergüenza. Uno de los mejores circuitos del mundo desaparece.”
“Pensé que no podía haber mas de una carrera por país… veo dos países con dos carreras. Que vuelvan a Imola.”
“Sin Imola, just before Zandvoort and Spa seguirán el camino de Hockenheim and Nürburgring. Todos los Circuitos clásicos Europeos serán reemplazados por circuitos urbanos sin sendido. Una Lástima.”
“This is unacceptable. No debería haber mas de una carrera por país para que otros puedan disfrutar del espectulo de la F1, and la protección de los Circuitos históricos debería ser Prioridad en lugar de Circuitos urbanos. Esto es F1, no IndyCar.”
“Demasiados Circuitos Urbanos. Están eliminate los Circuitos Reales por dinero.”
“Dos carreras on España y tres on Estados Unidos, cuando podrían correr on Sepang, Hockenheim/Nürburgring, Istanbul Park y Portimao… los responsables no son muy inteligentes.”
F1’s Orientation
Company 1 CEO Stefano Domenicali has shown his passion by integrating Madrid into the calendar, which has destroyed important car markets such as Audi, Cadillac and Ford and an F1 race. After the announcement, I felt comfortable coming to Madrid and because of the achievements they represent for the expelled.
Additional background and cambios
The 2026 calendar has a similar format to 2025, with 24 goals and includes sprint goals. The times are more variable and there are three parts in the final, with the fast-track being eliminated to coincide with the Indy 500, and the Gran Premio de Canada finale in May.
The Imola salida marks the end of the Gran Premio de Emilia Romagna on the Formula 1 circuit, a circuit with a lot of history and tradition. Because part of it, the Barcelona-Cataluña circuit will start from the Gran Premio de España hasta 2026, mientras se negocia su permanencia futura, posiblemente en un un sistema de rotación like al de Spa-Francorchamps .
