The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya unveiled in February a renovation plan for its facilities to modernize the Circuitcat and will open for appointment within two weeks with the Spanish Formula 1 Grand Prix. Major new things are in the paddock, key to allowing the Circuit to explore other forms of business.
As part of the agreement with the FIA and FIM, the hole for turn 4 was widened, widening it between 20 and 30 meters, making it safer. Franco Uncini, the man in charge of FIM Grand Prix safety, recently visited the Circuitcat showing his satisfaction as it was a request from MotoGP. “I visited the circuit last month and they made huge improvements at that point and we were pleased.”
Also, as every year, other more common improvements were made, such as a renovated curb at turn 3, the installation of a new tire barrier protection system called the “conveyor belt” or the removal of “astro turf” from almost everyone. places.
Another new thing has to do with the request from the FIA, the improvement of the fence separating the pit lane and finish line, and it also requested the renovation of the podium. Today, the podium area will be more up-to-date and have a larger area than ever before as well as the iconic shape of the Montmeló track.
They also took the opportunity to clean and beautify the drainage of garages and new rear access doors in garages and renovation of toilets and baths and replacing the building and finishing the building similar to the Medical Center.
These renovations are just part of many planned in the coming years to modernize the layout. So far, approximately 10 million euros of the 24 million investments planned for the next 3 years have been invested.
