One small nit-pick, Jo Bonnier's crash in 1966 as shown in the footage from Grand Prix, is the actual aftermath of the real accident, not a recreation. The film crews were actually at the Belgian GP that year to film footage for the movie, they were filming the start of the race when the now famous rainstorm took place. The chaos the cameras captured was included in the film, because it's amazing footage.

My Canadian dad worked for Englebert Tires between 1957 and 1963. We lived in Spa itself, which is a few Kms to the north. My brother and I attended every F1 race during those years and had access to the Engelbert Tower and paddock area. We were there when Stacey and Bristow were killed and also when Moss had his awful accident. I was just a kid, between 8 and 14 years old ... this is bringing back vivid memories. I went back two years ago to check it out. There was some sort of Porsche race going on but nothing serious. Thank you!

This is the best track documentary I've ever seen, and I watch every one that I can find! The sheer quantity (and quality) of period specific photos and film must have taken forever to assemble. The track tour using multiple films, windows, photos, and little pop up info items was wonderful. I know I'm sounding hyperbolic, but I know how much work, thought and editing that it must have taken. Your love of the track really shows, and the little tidbits of information along with historical comparisons of the track layout using postcards, and overhead views from what must have been very primitive aircraft.. well, it's amazing. Where on Earth did you look for all your visuals? Then, you do a great job of maintaining the historical flow of the story. I could go on and on. Very well done! Naturally, I'm a new subscriber, and thank you so much. PS: Thank you for NOT imposing the obligatory musical sound track. Your narration was right on, understandable, and very enjoyable.

Thanks for this video. I'm from Belgium in origin and I love this circuit - my favorite one in race simulation. I knew of course an older and longer circuit. I knew of an interruption of F1 in the middle of the 70's the circuit considered to dangerous and the Belgian GP taken place in Zolder - which ended with the death of Giles Villeneuve and the circuit of Francochamps rebuilt. But I knew very few of the details of the history. this video had filled many gaps and must have taken quite some time and a lot of effort in finding footage. So thanx for making this

Spa is synonymous with this man, he won there four times in a row - JIM CLARK - By far the greatest driver ever - no doubt. He is and was "The Best of the Best" (Fangio and Senna about Clark). No other driver in history until today was so superior as Clark - No other driver as so much "Grand Slam" - Pole/Win/Fastest Lap/Leading every lap of the race - like him. And all that from just 72 starts... ! This man is the Olymp of driving - the Michelangelo of racing - a dynamic art at the highest level. So smooth, so precise, so fast....simply out of this world. One, who won in Spa by 5 minutes (!) in monsoon rain with only one hand at the wheel (!) because of gearbox trouble...One, who takes back a complete lap (!) in Monza and back into the lead... One, who took pole on the original 22,8 km Nürburgring track by 9 (!) seconds and more....One who won Indy by 2 whole (!) laps...For eternity and by lightyears unmatched in the sport. That`s just four examples of his mesmeric unique genius...

Only a World War could stop him! They don´t make them like this anymore!!! Cheers from Portugal!

This is a marvellous documentary and includes much rare vintage footage so the author must have invested a lot of time in research to source all the material. Spa has always been my favourite circuit on which to drive a race car and you don't perceive how steep the hills are when you watch film footage. It's still a favourite circuit with current GP drivers so let's hope the governing bodies don't get too greedy for cash and award the 2023 race slot to an obscure, characterless track in the Middle East or Asia just because they bid more money.

Thank you very much for presenting such an excellent video. Your commentary is eloquent and easy to listen to. Your knowledge of racing is extensive. I liked the section withe split screen showing the same parts of the circuit in different years. It is sad that racing loses so many drivers for as many diverse reasons as there are people who drive.

I absolutely love the old cirquit!! Dangerous, if not even deadly if something went wrong, but ohh so beautiful. I wish they could held some kind of historical events on the old cirquit. Not races but more of running old cars and bikes round in a sensible pace. Thank´s for the fantastic film You have produced.

Yes, an historic race would be great! The circuit is almost the same today! Thanks! Cheers from Portugal!

The old portion of the track still exists today, somehow untouched. What a great idea to have a (slow speed ) race there!

Great Video, so glad you mentioned Steffan Bellof, he could have been World Champion, I met him once, nice chap. There was a recent crash at Spa in the Formula W race this year, luckily nobody was seriously hurt. Still the best circuit in the World.

Hi Robin. This video was released before this year crashes. Bellof was, as far as I know, the only fatality on Eau Rouge/Radillon while it was in its old configuration (but a bit enlarged). Now they made it a kink and the crazy crashes don´t stop...

I'm become real obsessed with Spa, is the best week in the F1, except for this year, when was a real bluff by FIA. I like too much your vid!
