In an interview, Fernando Alonso explained that when you are a child and you get into a kart you feel for the first time that you don’t have to obey neither parents nor teachers: it’s you with the car and you just want to go as fast as possible. Luckily, for his competitors, there is only one Fernando Alonso, but that doesn’t mean that everyone can’t enjoy, from time to time, a bit of speed and that feeling of freedom on a good karting track.
For that, we have made this compilation of 10 of the best karting circuits in Madrid, including outdoors, indoors, in the center and in the middle of nature.

Formula Zero
Probably the most curious fact is that the main track has 800 meters of rope and a spectacular layout. Its width ranges between 8 and 10 meters, and the track is able to accommodate races of up to 20 drivers at a time. It is precisely this layout that allows the creation of fast waves that give off pure adrenaline, combined with technical parts in which the driver’s skill makes him get that extra time that proves he is the best. In addition, the circuit has automated timing, which allows to know the personalized results with the times of each of the laps, the final position, its average and the number of laps achieved.
The circuit is located in Leganés and offers the “Fórmula StreeTT”, which consists of a track full of obstacles that participants must overcome with pedal-powered karts. This is an activity that will undoubtedly put your body and mind to the test.
