2 Montjuic

Imagine the street track of your dreams. Fast, varied and challenging; picturesque too. On all counts more so even than Monaco. That track was Montjuic.

Montjuic is a shallow hill to the south west of Barcelona’s centre, and the track held the Spanish Grand Prix four times between 1969 and 1975. It wound and swooped around attractive parkland and elegant architecture of domes and spires, centred by the opulent Palau Nacional.
