Glad Spa is still there.
Fuck that death trap and get some actually good tracks back on the calendar.
It’s an excellent track with a legitimately fatal flaw. They need to fix it. That doesn’t make it a bad track.
I'd concur with Verstappen here and say that Jeddah is a more dangerous track; it's just that there's been fewer races on it to illustrate that point.
As long as it is the F1 track that kills junior drivers every few years, it's actually a bad track and needs to get stricken off the calendar until they fix their death trap.
Yes…. and the Titan was an excellent submersible with a fatal flaw. That didn’t make it a bad submersible. 😂
Edit: I know this isn’t a great analogy, i just think it’s funny. Honestly not sure how they’d fix Spa tho cause the fatal flaw is the best part of the track. Maybe a chicane at Raidillon?
