Looks like it's replacing Imola

Really, news to me!

Anyone else know if this was expected or a curve ball?

Barcelona still has a contract for 2026, but it ends after that. So most likely it is a quirck that Madrid already is on the calender in 2026, and it will replace Barcelona from 2027 onwards.

Is there any progress on the idea to have a few slots that rotate?
