Event at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps

The Spa-Francorchamps circuit is a motorsport circuit located near Francorchamps in the province of Liège, Belgium. It hosts every year the Belgian Formula 1 Grand Prix and the 24 Hours of Spa endurance race, as well as other national and international races. At the crossroads of Europe, the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps resonates with a thousand and one fabulous stories from the heroic times of the automobile since the early 1920s. To say 'Spa-Francorchamps' is to immediately visualize a circuit sitting in particularly incredible surrounding nature in the middle of the Belgian Ardennes. Particularly appreciated by drivers because of the great variety of its layout, its nickname 'toboggan of the Ardennes' comes notably from the famous central point of the circuit called 'Eau Rouge': it is a steep uphill section followed by a unique corner imagined in 1939 in which you need a very 'big heart' to go through without lifting your foot from the accelerator by a single millimeter!
