From the grease and glamour, to the danger and thrills, this is an actionpacked, fact filled tour of the world of motor racing, featuring in-depth stories on the legends of motor racing, the high-performance machines, the men behind the wheel, and the circuits that have made history. Spa is considered to be one of the most challenging race tracks in the world, mainly due to its fast, hilly and twisty nature and is a firm favourite amongst both racing drivers and fans. This programme takes a fascinating and in-depth look at this much celebrated triangle shaped course in the Ardennes region of Belgium that links the three villages of Francorchamps, Malmedy and Stavelot, which has been the home of the Belgium Grand Prix since 1924.

What a magnificent vido. Many hours of work to pull this together. Well done to all involved. It is a graet watch. Thank you so much.
Great documentary 👍🏁
My favourite track…..by far!
Tragic to think that this masterpiece might leave the F1 calendar--as more and more the FIA moves to road courses that maximize the dollars for their home cities. Road racing has a place, but they have become uniformly boring. If I want to watch a parade, I have a lot of options already.
Waaay too much pavement, waaay too few trees.
@@carlsaganlives6086 And not enough places to pass. I mean, dear God look at Monaco. Only pass you're going to make is picking a good time to pit. And we're seeing more of them.
If someone would have a told me 20-25 years ago that Spa would still be on the F1 schedule I would have said no way. The place had become a run down dilapidated mess. I attend races there each year and the upgrades that have been made are amazing. Not only the track and infrastructure but upgrades in Francorchamps village with roads and pedestrian access. I am convinced its going to stay for the near future.
The fact there was actually a driver called Dick Seaman 😂
And of course the immortal Dick Trickle, midwestern short track star who had a few mediocre years in Cup cars...
Was he from Staines?😁
8:58 Tony Vandervell looking into the Vanwalls fuel tank with a cigarette between his lips!
In my opinion (so please no hate or saying I don't know what I'm talking about) it's Silverstone. Hosted the first ever world championship race and is still one of the best tracks on the planet from a driver and spectator standpoint. Monza also deserves to be up there aswell. Little fact. Monza was once the fastest speedway on the planet until daytona speedway came about and is still known as the temple of speed.
30:15 fully airstream body? I hope you mean the car? Great documantry.
Why did the Spa commentary stop so early? Old video from someone else? Spa is still on the calendar,
I'm pretty sure these documentaries were made somewhere around 2007 or earlier and are only now being posted on RUclips.
What the heck are you talking about?! Spa is still on the F1 calendar!
It is the current venue of the Formula One Belgian Grand Prix, hosting its first Grand Prix in 1925, and has held a Grand Prix every year since 1985 except 2003 and 2006.
This was when it was real racing on real tracks! A great documentary but the adds really get in the way!
✌️🤠💥🌟🌀👍
The only track when racing drivers still die
Every corner has a massive tarmac run off area, too forgiving.
this is really a great series for historians but why couldn't the commentator learn to pronounce foreign names correctly? beats me!!
SPA: Still The Best F1 Track Ever Made
Unquestionably.
Definitely get back to the European tracks, that's where Grand Prix racing started, and belongs.
YES! The new tracks of today are boring and the classic tracks across Europe are abandoned which takes so much out of the sport!

F1 track? Was the track solely built for the F1 circus? No. Read the Wikipedia page on its history. In your defence you might be confusing the term "F1" with the term "Grand Prix." "F1" is a recent (i.e. 1970s) entertainment (not in any way to be confused with motorsport) developed by a Andy Warhol look-a-like Brit Jooo. It's success and growth is unbelieveable - it puts even the most capitalist fascist conglomerates to shame..Fun fact - the Andy Warhol look-a-like Brit Jooo is a multi-billionaire even though he has a questionable ethic. Another fun fact - the actors in the entertainment today, apart from a few pensioners that don't know when to retire or forgot to collect their retirement notices from their letter boxes - are all on mega-million dollar contracts even though they cannot (or do not need to) shave. Clearasil should become a major sponsor.
F1 started in 1950, not the 70's. Long before Ecclestone came to the scene.
