Max Verstappen Onboard | F1 Old Spa-Francorchamps (1966)
Рет қаралды 560,221
Күн бұрынHere's an F1 2020 onboard lap around the old Spa-Francorchamps layout with Max Verstappen in his Red Bull RB16 challenger.
The old Spa layout was used between 1939-1978, and was 14.1km long. Going around this track with a modern F1 car means that it's mostly flat out throughout the majority of the circuit, with very very few turns and corners through the whole circuit. It was interesting to see the differences compared to the modern layout, one of them being the Eau Rouge and Raidillon corners which required me brake more compared to the modern layout.

F1s of the '60s were basically tinfoil-made bathtubs suspended on four motorbike wheels with a 500 HPs. engine running on high octane, hyperflammable petrol strapped in their back, bottlecaps for brakes and no wings (and no downforce), let alone robotised gearbox or electronic driving aids, to help you. And they raced on this kind of track, such as this old SPA which makes the Nordschleife looking like a marble track in comparison. Driving in Formula 1 in those years basically required complete indifference to end your career whether dead or alive... Surviving was a success in itself.

Adding to everything that was already commented, it is worth noting how Raidillon has been smoothed over the years; I think that bringing back this older version of the corner would also bring back some sort of challenge to the drivers navigating the curve, and it would also help slowing down the speeds carried trough that zone (although, it would be at the expense of runoff area right after Eau Rouge).
