🇧🇪 Stavelot, BelgiumPermanent circuit
Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps.
Spa is a long lap through the Ardennes, combining elevation, fast corners and extended straights. Its size brings an extra weather challenge: conditions can differ across the circuit. A good car needs confidence in the middle sector without giving away too much speed elsewhere.

KEY SECTIONS
T2–4
Eau Rouge and Raidillon
The track compresses at the bottom before climbing steeply. Placement through the crest sets up the Kemmel Straight.
T10–11
Pouhon
A sustained, fast double left-hander puts the car under load. This is a useful place to judge aerodynamic balance.
T18–19
The final chicane
A heavy stop after a long fast run. The slow exit is the last opportunity to prepare the following lap.
Setup focus
The long straights and loaded middle sector pull the setup in different directions. Watch where a car gains, not only its complete lap time.
Racing focus
Follow the run from La Source through Raidillon and along Kemmel. In changing weather, compare conditions across the full lap before reading a pace swing.
