The Formula 2 makes history this weekend by visiting Madring, a street circuit in Madrid, Spain, which hosts the 11th round of the 2026 season. Rafael Câmara, the championship’s current vice-leader, heads into the race with his sights set on the lead, having reduced the gap to the championship leader to 11 points at the last round held in Italy.
Holding the season’s pole-position record with five poles in ten rounds, Câmara arrives in Madrid fresh from a runner-up finish last Sunday at the Autodromo Nazionale di Monza. With that result, the Invicta Racing driver heads for the Spanish capital with real chances of seizing the championship lead, since each round awards 39 points.
The driver, who is part of the Ferrari Driver Academy, reveals that he is focused on his own work and that he has delivered a consistent performance across the last five rounds.
“I’m focused on myself and we need to keep that pace. I think in the last five rounds we’ve always been in the mix and we’ve stayed consistent. We just need to keep doing our job. The battle is certainly open and we will keep pushing until the end; we will never give up,” Rafael Câmara stated.
The Madring schedule for F2 will begin on Friday, when the weekend’s sole free practice and the qualifying session, which will determine the starting grid for the races, take place. The Sprint is set for 9:15 a.m. on Saturday, while the main race starts at 6:25 a.m. on Sunday. The event will be broadcast by Sportv, Globoplay and F1TV.
