I’ve spent 3 days at Spa Francorchamps enjoying some fabulous historic racing. A very wide range of classic cars were racing, everything from a Mini Cooper to a more recent McLaren F1 GTR longtail. This is my favourite event of the year, historic racing is so much more fun to watch then modern racing. The way these classic cars slide through the corners is a real joy to see. The weather was perfect with sun all weekend long, that must have helped to bring some more spectators to this event. While last year most of the grandstands were near empty this year a decent crowd turned up. And for good reason A small selection of the photos I made can be seen in 3 galleries:

Never seen the paddock at Spa Francorchamps so busy as last saturday. When I arrived in the morning I almost couldn’t find a spot to park my car and pick up my media pass and jacket. Over 600 historic racing cars participated in this event. And a lot more spectators then last years edition showed up, that might have something to do with the very good weather for the time of the year. Saw a lot of interesting cars on the track but also parked in the paddock. For the second time in my life I saw a McLaren F1, not a racecar but for many years this was the fastest production car in the world. I made a lot of photos, I’ve uploaded no less then 1527 photos to this gallery.
