In the round-up: Williams have produced a video showing a simulated lap of the Ifema Madrid Circuit which Formula 1 will race at in 2026.
In brief
Ifema Madrid Circuit rendering revealed
Williams have used a modified version of Assetto Corsa Competizione to create a video showing a lap of the planned Ifema Madrid Circuit.
The track model was created by Tyrone Hesbrook based on the information released about the circuit earlier this week and imagery of the surrounding roads. “It’s just to give an idea of the flow of the circuit,” said Hesbrook. “It’s based on the public streets, merged with the track plan that was released on 23/01/2024. No more details have been released, so I have done my best with the little information that is available.” The track is available for download.

Allaer jumps from F1600 to IndyNxt
HMD Motorsports has expanded its Indy Nxt line-up for 2024 by adding Nolan Allaer to its squad. He has already tested for the team at Sebring.
Allaer will step up to IndyCar’s leading junior series from Formula 1600. He also raced in the Formula Ford Festival at Brands Hatch last year.
“The jump from Formula 1600 to Indy Nxt is big, but what most people don’t know is that Nolan was testing other vehicles as he prepared for Indy Nxt,” said HMD Motorsports general manager Mike Maurini. “Despite the conditions at Sebring, Nolan learned a lot, and while two days of dry running would have been great to see where he stacked up, he was able to experience a lot of conditions and scenarios in just two days all while not running any new tyres to better prepare himself for our upcoming Laguna Seca test.”
