I saw one last year that had fallen down on Eau Rouge, with faeces streaming downhill. |

Not to sound negative or so. But a list of the dry Belgian GP from Spa: 2011: average race. 2009: interesting race for the lead although no real attempts were made. surprising result. but bad race really. 2007: boring from start to finish. 2004: excellent, but thanks to wet qualifying and F1 being away after a long summerbreak with drivers behaving like rookies. 2002: not good. 2001: the Burti accident kept everyone busy, but all in all it was a gifted win for Michael although it had the potential to be great (Frentzen 4th). 1999: nice qualifying accidents. Very poor race. 1996: hard crash from Verstappen allows Schumacher to outsmart Williams team and take surprising win. But not a good race. 1994: interesting grid thanks to qualifying. Easy win for Schumacher until DQ. Nothing much happened. Eau Rouge butchered. 1993: don't quite remember this one, but since I don't, it was probably nothing much to write home about. 1991: fantastic race this one. 1990: nothing much happened although the pit strategies allowed for some mid-race excitement. Also a few starts were needed before this one got underway properly. 1988: Senna takes easy win 1987: massive start crash. Senna vs Mansell, lol. Nothing happened for the rest. 1986: possibly one of the least appealing races of a very attractive season 1983: I seem to recall this one was a quite interesting GP with De Cesaris doing so well in the Alfa. So all in all, about 4 or so interesting races in 16 attempts. |

I'll always remember 2009  Fisi taking pole and keeping Kimi honest the entire race, keeping the gap down to a second, couldn't believe my eyes  A quarter of the spectators on my grandstand showed up on raceday with a Force India-cap  Together with Nurburgring, which I also attended, definitely my favourite weekends of 2009 It's moments like this why you love the sport, emotions in sport are fantastic

I remember coming back from work that day, going onto the BBC website, reading "Force India on pole" and thinking "that's nice, wait, WHAT?" |

Maldonado's race engineer has tweeted that the DRS detection & Activation points will be the same as 2011. Considering this was a track where DRS was way to effective last year, Im surprised if that turns out to be correct. |

Perhaps you should watch the race again. Apart from the top four the racing in the midfield was very entertaining. Sutil was a superstar that day. |

I remember one Spa race with madness at the end with Button crashing into Bruni after a puncture and Coulthard getting an extra rear wing after colliding with a Jaguar? |

2004 Zonta blew up at the end as well. |

Yeah that was a pretty eventful race. Wasn't there a bit of a crazy crash at Eau Rouge on the first lap as well?Tobias wrote: I saw one last year that had fallen down on Eau Rouge, with faeces streaming downhill. Corner should be renamed Eau Brune.
