Opened in 2015, Circuit Alonso was built as part of a complex which also includes a museum dedicated to the Spaniard's career and a golf course.

The track, which is eligible to host international competitions hosted by governing body CIK-FIA, includes sections of other tracks such as the 'S' curves from Suzuka or the last corner of the now-defunct Valencia street circuit.

In addition to being a racing track, it also serves as a driving school for youngsters aged between eight and 11.

The track will host the second race of the CIK-FIA European championship in both the OK and OKJ classes and round 3 of the KZ series on June 11th.

The schedule of the OK and OKJ categories will expand from four to five rounds in 2017 as it will also visit Sarno, Le Mans, Alaharma and Kristianstad.

It has also been announced the 2017 CIK-FIA OK and OKJ World Championships will be on September 24th at the British track of PF International.
