NEWS STORY
24/08/2010

Ahead of this weekend's Belgian Grand Prix, the FIA has revealed a number of changes to the Spa-Francorchamps circuit since 2009.

The artificial grass on the exit of La Source (Turn 1) has been widened and extended to the end of the run-off area.

A large section of the grass behind the apex kerb at Les Combes (Turn 6) has been laid with asphalt and three bumps (similar to those in Barcelona, Valencia and Monza) have been placed across the run-off area.

Further changes at Les Combes include a two metre wide strip of artificial grass behind the apex kerb, the kerb on the exit being replaced by a 50mm negative kerb and artificial grass placed behind it and the gravel behind the kerb on the exit being replaced by asphalt.
