Circuit de Cataluña

Navigate the twists and turns of the Circuit de Cataluña's Grand Prix, National, and School circuits in Forza Horizon 6. Learn optimal racing lines and braking points for every corner.

The Circuit de Cataluña offers three distinct layouts for racing in Forza Horizon 6: the Grand Prix Circuit, the National Circuit, and the School Circuit. Each presents unique challenges with varying lengths and corner configurations.

Grand Prix Circuit
A large 2.89 mile racetrack with a long straightaway and many hills full of twists and turns around the straight shot near the beginning.

National Circuit
This track is a 1.85 mile version of the grand Prix circuit that simply is without the small section that follows the first turn of the national circuit.

School Circuit
The portion of track that was removed from the national circuit is used in its own race to make the national circuit. This track is moderately hilly and extremely small, only 1.06 miles around.

Strategy:

The race starts with a relatively long straightaway where high speeds can be achieved, but shouldn't because there are two turns right after it that are extremely narrow and require you to drastically lower your speed. Take them from the inside, and then there will be a straightaway with a really long, wide curve. Take it from the middle and you won't have to break much. After the turn is a short straightaway followed by an extremely sharp right turn, take it in the middle, another straight stretch where you should simply maintain your speed and then another sharp left. On the left the tack is very narrow so take it inside the turn and drastically reduce your speed. After that speed up a little in the next straightaway and then take a narrow left followed by a medium left, slow down a little for the second. Speed up as the road ahead has a mild turn to the right that can be accelerated through, but be careful not to run off the road as the track slightly narrows. Accelerate until halfway through the next straightaway and then slow down drastically, begin to slow down about halfway to the turn as it is extremely sharp. This is followed by a straightaway in which you can accelerate and then a medium s-turn that requires you to slow down just a little. Then is another acceleration zone and a few narrow s-turns, take them at medium speeds, not to fast or too slow. Take one more medium left, slow down a little and then accelerate toward the finish line.
