Circuito de Jerez hosted the Formula 1 Spanish Grand Prix five times from 1986 to 1990, and also staged the European Grand Prix races in 1994 and 1997.
From 1991 onwards, the Spanish Grand Prix moved to the new Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya in Montmeló, near Barcelona, where it continues to be held.
The museum at the Jerez circuit features various Formula 1 related exhibits, including the actual Williams-Honda car that British racing driver Nigel Mansell drove at the first Grand Prix at Jerez in 1986, in which he narrowly lost to Ayrton Senna.
