Chauffeur Service for Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya
Race traffic for the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya leaves the C-17 at the Montmeló exit or the AP-7 at exits 13, 14 and 15. With a driver, nobody in your group drives home after a day trackside, and the weekend comes as one quote.
A racetrack outside the city
Montmeló, a town in the Vallès Oriental county north of Barcelona and outside the Barcelona Metropolitan Area, is where the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya was inaugurated on September 10, 1991. Its 4.657 km track staged a first F1 Grand Prix only weeks later, and the MotoGP Grand Prix joined the calendar the following year. The Catalan Government, the RACC and Montmeló City Council own the Circuit, and since January 2025 Fira de Barcelona has managed it through its company Fira Circuit SL.
Race weekends are only part of the picture. Across its 25 hectares the Circuit offers more than 15 indoor rooms, hospitality lounges and suites, and nine large outdoor areas for events of all kinds.
For the road, the Circuit sends drivers to the C-17 at the Montmeló exit, or to the AP-7 at exits 13, 14 and 15. With a chauffeur, you are not the one driving home after a long day trackside: you are collected at your hotel, at the airport or at Barcelona Sants, and brought back the same way. Send the event, the days, the gate or grandstand on your ticket and your times, and the quote is built on that plan.

In Montmeló, a town in the Vallès Oriental county north of Barcelona, outside the Barcelona Metropolitan Area. By road, the Circuit lists the C-17 (Montmeló exit) and the AP-7 (exits 13, 14 and 15). Ask for a quote from your hotel and the reply covers that exact trip.
Can a private car drive into the circuit on a race weekend?
That depends on the plan the Circuit publishes for each event. For the 2026 MotoGP weekend, its mobility plan, published May 12, 2026, said no private vehicle could enter the circuit perimeter without a parking ticket bought beforehand, and told drivers to follow the police and road signs rather than GPS. Read the plan for your event and send the gate on your ticket with the request.
Can I book a driver for every day of the race weekend?
Yes. List the days, the hotel, when you want to reach the Circuit and when you plan to leave, plus the number of people, and the quote covers each day's journeys.

Yes. The Circuit says its site has more than 15 indoor rooms, hospitality lounges and suites, and nine large outdoor areas for events of all kinds. For guests of a company event, see Corporate Chauffeur Barcelona.
