Circuit de Spa Francorchamps, Spa, Belgium

Belgian Grand Prix Experience:

“Fantastic tickets, seated at the Pit Exit between La Source and Eau Rouge. As always a great atmosphere at this circuit. I liked that fact that we had toilets that had to be paid for, making them clean and bareable, unlike the normaly portable loos. I heard a lot of people moaning about having to pay, but i was more then happy to do so over the course of the 3 days.

Overall a fantastic 3 days, we always enjoy our visit to this circuit.”
Rachael Shaw (Silver: 2 Spa)

“Belgian GP is a must see, even with general admission tickets we still got a great view if the track, will definitely be back!”
Mathew Cook (Bronze: General Admission)

“Another wonderful weekend in this amazing place,Great viewing with lots of action on the last corner and covered from the rain. Front row seats would be better as there are a few heads in the way. Great access to the podium right after the race. ”
SpudGP (Gold: 6 Chicane)

“Our Group of 3 visited Spa for our 1st ever Grand Prix this year. Having read the 2010 reviews, our expectations were clear regarding the weather, food and access to the track. However, I’d have to say that pre-booked Gold Seats in the covered stand was a real treat – we avoided the rain, had great views from La Source right past Eau Rouge and had easy access to the food and the toilets. We expected the fast food but it was pleasant and a real treat – Belgian waffles and Fries just added to the occasion – there are 51 other weekends of the year to eat salads etc.

The Merchandise was pricey but easily accessible. Racing wise, the view was excellent and seeing the cars at least once from the view at the bottom of Eau Rouge is a must do…

Overall, very memorable, no complaints and well worth the price ! ”
Martin Duffy (Gold: 2 GP2)

“Only went for the race day itself but what an amazing experience.

Took my 10 year old son for what was our first live GP. Booked general admission and spent the day on the Kemmel Straight opposite the big screen. The view from this area is amazing as it looks out over the circuit so you get to experience the raw speed of the cars and also see them going through the bus stop and onto the pit straight.

Green parking was ideal, we got there at 06:30 so the traffic was very light. Our journey back to Holland where we were staying took 2 1/2 hours longer than the journey there.

We packed our own for the day. Would also suggest packing cloths for all conditions, it may have looked sunny on the TV but there was quite a cool breeze, at least it stayed dry!

If you are thinking of going to Spa, stop thinking about it and get there. ”
David B (Bronze: General Admission)

Hamilton won Belgian Grand Prix 2010

Lewis Hamilton won the Belgian Grand Prix after an incident-packed race at Spa-Francorchamps.

Hamilton took control of the race with a perfect start from the outside of the front row, while pole-sitter Webber bogged down as his Red Bull’s anti-stall function kicked in and tumbled to seventh place.

Jenson Button and Fernando Alonso crashed out, and Sebastian Vettel failed to score a point.

“I’m ecstatic, it was a great weekend,” said Hamilton, whose driving was praised by his team principal Martin Whitmarsh. “A race like that can be a lottery, so I’m so happy and grateful to come out on top.”

Belgian Grand Prix 2010 – Friday practice

• Posted in Belgian GP . F1 News

Fernando Alonso posted the quickest lap times in each one of Friday’s two practice sessions for the Belgian Grand Prix.

The Spanish driver signalled his intention with a lap of 2 minutes, 0.797 seconds in a rain-affected morning session.

Then he capitalised on a chaotic finish to a mainly dry afternoon stint to stop the clock at 1:49.032, 0.125 seconds ahead of Force India’s Adrian Sutil.

Hamilton was 3rd but Red Bull’s championship leader Webber was 2.6secs off the pace at Spa.

Kubica, testing the team’s brand-new F-duct aerodynamic system, came through 4th fastest and Alonso’s teammate Massa was sixth.

Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel, third in the drivers’ rankings, was 0.657secs behind and reigning world champion Button of McLaren was a further 0.066secs back.

Alonso ended up on top but his rivals may point to the open track on which he was able to post his top time following a red flag towards the end of second practice.

Williams driver Rubens Barrichello, who is set to become the 1st Formula 1 driver to contest 300 races this weekend, was almost 1.1secs off the pace.

Mercedes’ seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher goes into the race with a 10-place grid penalty after nearly running Barrichello into a pit wall at the Hungarian Grand Prix.
