LIVEBLOG | The second free practice for the Belgian Grand Prix 2022

 

The Belgian GP is a popular event with many drivers and fans, but the question is whether the Spa-Francorchamps circuit will remain on the F1 calendar in 2023. With new organisations also wanting to organise a GP, the position of countries like Belgium is coming under pressure. However, from the paddock, there is a lot of support for the race.

F1 for the last time in Belgium?

The circuit has also been given a lot of work ahead of this weekend's Grand Prix. The section at Eau Rouge for example has been modified to give it more of an 'old school' effect according to Max Verstappen. Spa-Francorchamps is the favourite circuit of the Dutchman, who hopes to give his title fight a positive boost this weekend.

The second free practice session is always a good indicator. The session in Belgium starts at 17:00 local time, making conditions similar to those of qualifying and the race. You will see the drivers making a lot of qualifying and lung runs this session. Don't miss any of the action on track with the live blog below.
