Formula 1's top 10 lost circuits
Barcelona's Circuit de Catalunya hosts this weekend's Spanish Grand Prix, but another circuit in the city is one of the greatest tracks no longer on the calendar. Edd Straw takes you through nine others no longer with us.

The below list is about picking the greatest tracks from among these 40-odd circuits, some of which are still operating in one form or another, some of which are long gone, that once played host to the greatest drivers in the world.
