Exciting weekend ahead in La Bañeza, featuring the Grand Prix of Speed and the nineteenth annual Motor Show
In the heart of La Bañeza, León, Spain, two exciting events are taking place: the City of La Bañeza Speed Grand Prix and the XIX Motor Fair.
The Speed Grand Prix, a historic urban motorcycle race, is known for its unique setting. It is the only motorcycle race in Spain that takes place entirely on an urban circuit, with the town's streets serving as the race track. With a rich history of over 53 years, this event attracts broad attention nationally and internationally[1].
The XIX Motor Fair, while not explicitly detailed in the search results, is likely a motor exhibition event related to motor racing culture. It complements the Speed Grand Prix with exhibitions and showcases of automotive technology, vehicles, and motorsport culture.
This year's Speed Grand Prix is a special edition. It features a tribute to Daniel Amatriain, accompanied by actress Neus Sanz, and the presence of Moto3 World Champion Jaume Masia as the guest of honor[2]. The races will take place in three categories: classic two-stroke, classic four-stroke, and 125 Moto 3.
Juan Carlos Suárez-Quinones, the Counselor of Environment, Housing and Territorial Planning of the Junta of Castile and León, visited the events. He congratulated the Speed Grand Prix for gaining its own identity and becoming a national event, particularly for the tribute to Derbi[3].
