Mods...would you want to clean up the thread where the contest of 'Spa-meister' is currently in discussion? :hehe:

4 weeks to go, but I believe there's a lot to talk about for the legendary circuit!

To start off, let me post a video I've watched at least 50 times on youtube:

Crank up the volume for the last 1/3 of the lap... :drink:

Breaking News:Lewis Hamilton has officially overtaken The Fonz in race wins. With 88 races less. Lol(Without a specially built blown diffuser, illegal front wing, preferential treatment)

Back when the Coulthard inspired pile-up happened in Spa '98; T-Cars were still allowed; so most of the drivers ran back to the pits to get in the T-Car to take the restart!

This is a great track, lots of history here. I bet the weather will be off and on rain, it always seems like it is haha. There will be lots of updates to the cars which will make the days leading up to the race more interesting. Very excited for the next three weeks to be over.

I think this will be either a Mclaren or Ferrari victory. RedBull dont do so well on this track, and im not saying that because of Seb's crash. :rolleyes:

I thought RBRs were suited to the high-speed corners...
