What happened: The 2026 Spanish Grand Prix will run at the new Madring circuit. Its 22-corner layout features the banked La Monumental centerpiece.
Why it matters: The design connects Madrid's new venue with Williams' second consecutive constructors' championship season. It also gives the team a distinct identity for the circuit's debut weekend.
By the numbers: Williams scored 95 points to win the 1981 constructors' championship.
What to watch: Attention now shifts to Williams' performance in Madring's first Formula 1 race.
