Grandstand i, Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya

Circuit de Barcelona - Catalunya, Grandstand i

This was the first covered grandstand of Barcelona's Circuit de Catalunya. Grandstand i can accommodate 1600 spectators and is located on the outside of the last but very important corner of the circuit - the New Holland Corner - which is taken in 5th gear at 225 kph, with only a small lift on entry. The cars use a lot of kerbs on this final corner, and many top drivers have almost come to grief on the dust at the exit, before accelerating towards the start finish line. This corner is taken with only the slightest lift off throttle, and generates extremely high lateral forces of 3,5 G's, probably one of the highest in Grand Prix racing. The big screen opposite this grandstand intensifies the drama and magnifies the action on other parts of the circuit.

• Recommended entry gates: 2 & 3
