Ayuso's PP Defends Formula 1 Grand Prix Against Opposition Criticism Less Than a Week Before its Celebration: "It is a Collective Achievement"

El Periódico Mediterráneo - General7 September 2026 at 14:42

Less than a week before the celebration of the Spanish Formula 1 Grand Prix at the Madring circuit, Isabel Díaz Ayuso's regional PP continues to defend the event against criticism from the opposition. The regional government presents this race as the banner of its strategy to position Madrid in the league of major global capitals.

The regional PP defends the event as a major international showcase for the Spanish capital, considering it a collective achievement. This position arises in direct response to the objections raised by the regional left-wing groups, who criticize the motor race by considering that it benefits only a small group of people.

Isabel Díaz Ayuso's Executive has bet on Formula 1 as part of Madrid's image as a world-reference city, using the sporting event to reinforce the international projection of the region. The proximity of the Grand Prix celebration date has intensified the political debate around the race.
