Title: UKGPL Season 17 (2009) Gold Cup - Spa (1967) - Jun 29
Post by: vosblod on June 22, 2009, 10:09:11 AM +0100
Onto the last race of the Season and you’ll need a fast car to win at Spa (last one, phew). It would take Lord Sauron to wrestle Clive’s precious from him now so, barring a miracle or disaster (depending on your perspective), that leaves second place up for grabs between Fulvio and Hristo.  As well as registering at UKGPL you will also need to have registered at GBGPL; http://www.gbsimracing.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,1098.0.html (http://www.gbsimracing.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,1098.0.html)

Designed by Jules de Their and Henri Langlois Van Ophem, the original 15 km (9.3 mile) triangle-shaped course used public roads between the Belgian towns of Francorchamps, Malmedy and Stavelot. The Belgian Grand Prix was held at Spa-Francorchamps for the first time in 1924. Eighteen Formula One World Championship Grands Prix were run on the Spa-Francorchamps circuit's original configuration, which was boycotted by F1 in 1968, before the revised circuit banished it to the history books in the late 70s. Over the years, the Spa course has been modified several times. The biggest change saw the circuit being shortened from 14 km (8.7 miles) to 7 km (4.35 miles) in 1979. Since inception, the place has been famous for its unpredictable weather. Frequently drivers are confronted with one part of the course being clear and bright while another stretch is rainy and slippery. The circuit probably demonstrates the importance of driver skill more than any other in the world. This is largely due to the Eau Rouge and Blanchimont corners, both which need to be taken flat out to achieve a fast run onto the straights after them, which aids a driver in both a fast lap and in over-taking.

I'm afraid that I'm away so won't be able to make the last race of the season :( Been looking forward to running at Spa too.
