DRIVE THE CLASSICS
EUROPE
Spa-Francorchamps, Belgium
One of the most famous circuits in the world (possibly the most famous), this glorious 4.3mile ribbon of asphalt threads its way through the Ardennes woodland, making it as picturesque as it is pleasurable to drive.
The Spa track now may be near unrecognisable from the original nine-and-a- half mile public road course of the 1920s, when the layout was feared as one of the fastest in the world, but that’s not to say the current GP configuration isn’t a challenge. Along with Eau Rouge/Raidillon (and their 18-degree incline), there are also the high-speed challenges of Pouhon (a double-apex left) and Blanchimont (an often flat-out left kink).
