Designed in 1920 by Jules de Thier and Henri Langlois Van Ophem, the original course used public roads linking the Belgian towns of Francorchamps, Malmedy, and Stavelot. Old Spa-Francorchamps was extremely fast and dangerous with drivers managing higher average speeds than on other race tracks. At the time, the Belgians took pride in having a very fast circuit, and to improve average speeds, in 1939 the former slow uphill U-turn at the bottom of the Eau Rouge was cut short with a faster sweep straight up the hill, called the Raidillon. This is a very famous part of the Spa-Francorchamps track. Some of the on-board footage featured in this movie were actually shot by a camera on Phil Hill's car during the 1966 Monaco and Belgian Grand Prix. #F1 #GrandPrix #SpaFrancorchamps If you like my video, consider supporting me with BTC, any amount is appreciated bc1q6fl64m8eqvkzrdgkcxml3946su0lq2mqcq2pkn
