The GP of Belgium is one of the favourites by the pilots. To a large extent, this GP has been disputed on the circuit of Spa Francorchamps, but also it has been run in two occasions in Nivelles and other ten in the circuit of Zolder. It was in 1983 when, after 13 years, the F1 returned to the scene by antonomasia of the GP of Belgium. This one is not other that the magnificent Spa. Inaugurated in 1924 by Jules de Thiere, this track ran by highways opened to the daily traffic. Originally, this route had a length of 14120 ms.
It was this same excessive length which advised to cut the layout and to adapt it to the new norms of security which they were in force. It was so, after a test in 1983, the new Spa returned to the stable group of mundialistas circuits as of 1985 after the remodeling conducted in 1978. Spa is submerged in the forest of the Ardennes and is this exceptional situation what confers to this circuit its unique personality. It has in addition one to the most famous and exciting curves of all the world-wide one. There is one who even risks to describe it like the most difficult curve as the world; its name: L'Eau Rouge. Their conjunction with their inseparable companion Him Radillon conforms one of the points more dangerous than the pilots of our time must approach. Each curve is a challenge. Beginning from the exit, in which all want to gain the position in the braking of the Source (a bracket of rights) risks the collision.
L'Eau Rouge is fantastic a curved one, thorough foot and upwards, to be with the frightful Raidillon. This curve is most important because so fast he is able to leave her, more speed you can reach in the straight line of Kemmel. The braking of Them Open space is an ideal site to try the advancement. We descend by Malmedy until arriving at the round one from the Rivage, where there is to keep the interior well not to be surpassed by another participant. A fast reduction takes us curve to the technical of Pouhon, curve of double radius that most capable tries to turn one only. Violent braking in Fagnes, third, fourth... drawing up fine one to arrive at Stavelot. 245 in fourth and sent to Blanchimont where in sixth we cleared the 300 per hour. We extended towards a the the four outside and "G" are almost ours
Thus we arrived thorough until chicane of Bus-Stop, left-right. The slowest left, second like threading a needle. The ear grazing by the triple keep-rail to reach the ray. And thus 44 returns, friends, an authentic challenge in dry. In wet a layout for authentic artists.
