Located in the heart of the Ardennes forest in Belgium, the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps is often described as a rollercoaster for its dramatic elevation changes and sweeping curves. Spa is one of the oldest and most iconic tracks in motorsport, hosting events like the Formula 1 Belgian Grand Prix and the 24 Hours of Spa. The circuit's most famous section, Eau Rouge, is a daunting uphill corner that challenges drivers with its high-speed entry and blind crest. Spa's unpredictable weather adds to the excitement, with rain often affecting parts of the track while others remain dry. The combination of natural beauty, historical significance, and challenging layout makes Spa-Francorchamps a bucket-list destination for racing fans.
