This is what Spa-Francorchamps looked like in 1934

There used to be a time at Spa where drivers took a left at Eau Rouge instead of going up Raidillon. At 14.950 km, this circuit was more than two times longer than today's current circuit.
This F1 2022 onboard lap is driven in Assetto Corsa at the Old Spa-Francorchamps circuit with Max Verstappen in the Red Bull Racing RB18 challenger.

This Lap here was 2:44 faster than the Fastest Lap back in 1934. So if this Red Bull would entered the 1934 belgian gp, it would be lapping some of the slower cars at their first lap.

I think the chicane there was only used for a handful of races and one was proposed just before the Masta kink. You can see both on google maps. One is a lay-by and the other is parking for the residents of Masta Edit: the Malmedy chicane actually leads to a dirt road of some kind that goes underneath and then alongside the motorway

Not to mention the chassis, i`m pretty sure the amount of bending and fractures at the end of the race are more like heartattack level worrying. (if you can get to the end of the race) That if the wings dont fly off because pressure, vibration and grounding first. Every car should be completely scrapped at the end of the race, for safety.

In the deluge of a first lap in 1966, Jackie Stewart hit a telephone pole and was stuck, soaked in fuel under his BRM in a ditch for 30min while Grahame Hill & Bob Bondurant worked to free him & then bring him some medical attention. That was the starting point of modern F1 safety and the GPDA. The 14km Spa was the first track they boycotted in 1969 because the circuit had refused their request to install guard rails. By 1971 the track was the modern 7km version with barriers, more marshals and rules about wet starts.

They would definitely be worse, in fact if we're being honest with most modern cars (not just F1) a race at this layout of the track would be dull as hell. You can see that modern cars have so much downforce that all the driver is really doing for 90% of the time is putting the foot down and leaving it there. Even in few braking zones that are there the track is to narrow to overtake. The only overtakes that might happen are DRS along the streights but even that would be mostly pointless since the positions would just swap again on the next one, theirs nothing the defending driver can do about it. I know some like to get teary eyed and nostalgic about old tracks like this, but the truth is they stopped racing on them for a reason.

Great little vid, the Malmedy chicane at 1.04 was removed in 1934, but the rest of the track stayed that way until 1939, when the Eau Rouge river had the new bridge built over it to make the corner we know today. The fastest lap by Mercedes was in 1937 at 5 min 5 secs. Unfortunately in 1939 it rained and even with the new Eau Rouge they could only do 5 min 15sec. But with skinny tyres and no aero

Spa doesn’t look all that different in the 1966 film Grand Prix. The lap was shorter, but probably with as many trackside hazards per mile. To add to the danger, the 1966 race (of which real footage is edited into the film) was run in torrential rain. A lot of the footage is from onboard cameras (albeit not on race day). If you’re a motorsport fan it’s well worth checking out, and has similar sequences from other tracks in the 1966 calendar, such as Monaco and Monza. Though they added a fictional lap that included Monza’s banking into the film - by that point the banking hadn’t been used for a few years.

In 1986 I accompanied Jackie Stewart to the site of his famous 1966 crash, when he ended up in a local farmer’s chicken coop. He hadn’t been back until that day. He said that back then, the wire wasn’t to keep cars in but to keep cows out . . .

Bring it back! I would enjoy seeing a straight so long that the drivers would need to strategize when they should pass (no DRS of course) so that they don't get repassed on the same straight.
