+ | The '''Spanish Grand Prix''' (''Gran Premio de España'') is a [[Formula One]] race currently held at the [[Circuit de Catalunya]] in [[Barcelona]], [[Spain]], as part of the annual Formula One championship season. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | == History == | ||
+ | The first Spanish [[Grand Prix motor racing|Grand Prix]] in [[1913]] was not actually run to the Grand Prix formula of the day, but to touring car rules, taking place on a 300-kilometre road circuit at [[Guadarrama]], near [[Madrid]], on the road to [[Valladolid]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[Motor racing]] events had taken place in Spain prior to that - the most notable among them being the Catalan Cup of [[1908]] and [[1909]], on roads around [[Sitges]], near [[Barcelona]]. Both of these events were won by [[Jules Goux]], establishing a strong racing tradition in [[Catalonia]], which has continued to this day. This enthusiasm for racing led to the plan to build a permanent track at Sitges - a 2km oval which became known as [[Sitges-Terramar]], and was the site of the [[1923]] Spanish Grand Prix. | ||
− | + | After this first race, the track fell into financial difficulties, and the main race in Spain moved to the [[Circuito Lasarte]] track on the northern coast (called the [[San Sebastian Grand Prix]]). Following the [[1936]] race, Spain descended into [[Spanish Civil War|civil war]] and racing stopped. In 1946, racing returned to Spain in the form of the [[Penya Rhin Grand Prix]] at the [[Pedralbes Circuit]] in [[Barcelona]]. | |
− | + | Spain did not return to the international calendar until [[1951]], joining the list of races of the [[Formula One]] championship, on the [[Pedralbes Circuit]]. In [[1955]], a [[1955 Le Mans disaster|terrible accident]] at the [[24 Hours of Le Mans]] resulted in regulations governing spectator safety, and the pedestrian-lined street track at Pedralbes was dropped from the racing calendar. | |
− | + | == Comeback == | |
+ | In the [[1960s]], Spain made a bid to return to the world of international motor racing - the [[Royal Automobile Club of Spain]] commissioned a new circuit north of Madrid at [[Circuito Permanente Del Jarama|Jarama]], and [[Cataluña]] refurbished their circuit at [[Montjuïc circuit]] in [[Barcelona]]. A non-championship [[Grand Prix motor racing|Grand Prix]] took place at Jarama in [[1967]], which was won by [[Jim Clark (racing driver)|Jim Clark]] racing in a [[Lotus (car)|Lotus]]. | ||
− | + | In [[1968]], Jarama hosted the Spanish Grand Prix, near the beginning of the F1 season. It was agreed, following this event, that the race would alternate between Jarama and Montjuich. | |
− | + | The [[1975]] Grand Prix at Montjuich was marked by tragedy. There had been concerns about track safety during practice races, and double-winner [[Emerson Fittipaldi]] retired in protest after a single lap. On the 26th lap of the race, [[Rolf Stommelen|Rolf Stommelen's]] car crashed when the rear wing broke off, killing four spectators. The race was stopped later and won by [[Jochen Mass]], though only half the points were awarded. | |
− | In [[ | + | The Spanish Grand Prix was confined to Jarama until [[1981]], after which it was dropped from the racing calendar. In [[1985]], the Mayor of [[Jerez]] commissioned a new racing circuit in his town to promote tourism and [[sherry|sherries]]. The track, the [[Circuito Permanente de Jerez]], was finished in time for the [[1986 Formula One season|1986 championship]], which saw a furious battle between [[Ayrton Senna]] and [[Nigel Mansell]], with the two cars finishing side by side. The stewards awarded the win to Senna, by 0.014 seconds - one of F1's closest finishes. |
− | The [[ | + | The [[1990 Spanish Grand Prix]] was the last in Jerez (although Jerez did stage the [[European Grand Prix]] in [[1994]] and [[1997]]). During the practice, [[Martin Donnelly]]'s car was destroyed in a high-speed collision, and Donnelly was severely injured. |
− | + | Work on the Circuit de Catalunya was underway in [[Barcelona]], and in [[1991]], the event moved to this new track, where it has remained since. The 1992 event was advertised as the Grand Prix of the [[1992 Summer Olympics|Olympic Games]]. | |

The Spanish Grand Prix (Gran Premio de España) is a Formula One race currently held at the Circuit de Catalunya in Barcelona, Spain, as part of the annual Formula One championship season.
History
The first Spanish Grand Prix in 1913 was not actually run to the Grand Prix formula of the day, but to touring car rules, taking place on a 300-kilometre road circuit at Guadarrama, near Madrid, on the road to Valladolid.
Motor racing events had taken place in Spain prior to that - the most notable among them being the Catalan Cup of 1908 and 1909, on roads around Sitges, near Barcelona. Both of these events were won by Jules Goux, establishing a strong racing tradition in Catalonia, which has continued to this day. This enthusiasm for racing led to the plan to build a permanent track at Sitges - a 2km oval which became known as Sitges-Terramar, and was the site of the 1923 Spanish Grand Prix.
After this first race, the track fell into financial difficulties, and the main race in Spain moved to the Circuito Lasarte track on the northern coast (called the San Sebastian Grand Prix). Following the 1936 race, Spain descended into civil war and racing stopped. In 1946, racing returned to Spain in the form of the Penya Rhin Grand Prix at the Pedralbes Circuit in Barcelona.
Spain did not return to the international calendar until 1951, joining the list of races of the Formula One championship, on the Pedralbes Circuit. In 1955, a terrible accident at the 24 Hours of Le Mans resulted in regulations governing spectator safety, and the pedestrian-lined street track at Pedralbes was dropped from the racing calendar.
Comeback
In the 1960s, Spain made a bid to return to the world of international motor racing - the Royal Automobile Club of Spain commissioned a new circuit north of Madrid at Jarama, and Cataluña refurbished their circuit at Montjuïc circuit in Barcelona. A non-championship Grand Prix took place at Jarama in 1967, which was won by Jim Clark racing in a Lotus.
In 1968, Jarama hosted the Spanish Grand Prix, near the beginning of the F1 season. It was agreed, following this event, that the race would alternate between Jarama and Montjuich.
The 1975 Grand Prix at Montjuich was marked by tragedy. There had been concerns about track safety during practice races, and double-winner Emerson Fittipaldi retired in protest after a single lap. On the 26th lap of the race, Rolf Stommelen's car crashed when the rear wing broke off, killing four spectators. The race was stopped later and won by Jochen Mass, though only half the points were awarded.
The Spanish Grand Prix was confined to Jarama until 1981, after which it was dropped from the racing calendar. In 1985, the Mayor of Jerez commissioned a new racing circuit in his town to promote tourism and sherries. The track, the Circuito Permanente de Jerez, was finished in time for the 1986 championship, which saw a furious battle between Ayrton Senna and Nigel Mansell, with the two cars finishing side by side. The stewards awarded the win to Senna, by 0.014 seconds - one of F1's closest finishes.
The 1990 Spanish Grand Prix was the last in Jerez (although Jerez did stage the European Grand Prix in 1994 and 1997). During the practice, Martin Donnelly's car was destroyed in a high-speed collision, and Donnelly was severely injured.
Work on the Circuit de Catalunya was underway in Barcelona, and in 1991, the event moved to this new track, where it has remained since. The 1992 event was advertised as the Grand Prix of the Olympic Games.
