      90 Quattro Sports are the fastest at Spa.

        What really me off was the number of breaks! There seemed to be far more than usual!

        Shame they've changed the bus stop chichane, seems to have lost some of the character IMO, bet it was a Berny led change

        Loving that vid BRY, that noise is awesome!

          Raidillon rulezz !!!

          Never been there ( well I have been but not on the track ) with the S2 yet... It truly is an awesome track and the 'raidillon' curve is a real wall that you've got to tackle with a deep breath as you'll easily pull +2G's in it on the bottom.

          I've raced my former track car 320i M-Technik there and it was fab in the corners and could max it in 3rd gear up the 'raidillon'. A bit unpowered though in the straights and fast curves uphill as it's a really long track...
          Also raced my former car before the S2, a 530i V8 manual that was better powerwise but on stock suspension so bit of a "pudding" in the tight corners as Clarkson would say...

          Nevertheless, the best F1 track on the planet !!!

                It's not better than sex, but it runs it a close second.

                    I think that's inconsistent but there you go, Bernie loves his championship to remain close right to the end...

                      I couldn't agree more - I also think his flat tyre that lost him the championship last year was an "arrangement" because of the Mclaren/Ferrari leaked tech data fiasco. I'm sure there's a bucket load of 'politics' that goes on behind the scenes.

                        ridiculous how biased are the fia . It always seems to be pro ferrari and anti mclaren . Yes lewis overtook illegally but then let him back past . He then over took him afterwards . Kimi smashed it up anyway and massa was miles away . What an absolute joke i hope mclaren appeal . And what happened two weeks ago when the fia were looking at the massa incident oh yeah nothing what so ever .

                            Way too much power in one man's hand IMHO, regardless of the outcome of this decision to strip the winner of a well deserved win...

                              f'ing joke.

                              Hamilton was fantastic and overtook fair and square. IMO after he cut the corner let Timmi past and slowed down MORE than him before overtaking. How can FIA possibly award a penalty against Lewis.

                              Just more evidence of a what a corrupt and one sided load of balls F1 is....

                              A brilliant race spoilt.
