The FIA has revealed a minor change to the Spa-Francorchamps circuit ahead of this year's Grand Prix.

At Turn 8 (Rivage), the open-radius hairpin after Les Combes, has been made wider and asphalt has replaced the gravel run-off.

1992 world champion Nigel Mansell once again serves as a race steward along with Paul Gutjahr - president of the FIA Hill Climb Commission and President of Auto Sport Suisse SRL - and Paolo Longoni a member of the Italian Motor sport Commission.

As previously reported, the DRS detection zone is halfway down the hill that leads from La Source to Eau Rogue, while the activation zone is just after Raidillon. The use of DRS in Eau Rouge itself is prohibited throughout the entire weekend.
