Welcome to the third round of the 2023 WEC Championship at the legendary Spa-Franchorchamps circuit.
This ‘Spotter Guide’ is for the 6-hour race which takes place this coming Saturday.
The pictures shown below are lower resolution screengrabs. If you want better a quality for printing, I also include a Dropbox link to a higher resolution version PDF file.

Cars built to the LMDh regulations (Porsche and Cadillac) have a red frame around the car picture.
Be prepared for all kinds of weather!

Will HOR 98 still be liveried up as Northwest?

A bit sad to see the current 98 drivers miss LM

Yes, that was an experience, bit chilly last night, but not THAT bad

I’m sorry I didn’t think to look here for your always excellent guides. frown

My bed was comfy on Fri night, too. But then I’m only 90 mins drive from Spa, so I set off at 0830 on Sat morning and was home by 2130.
Exiting car parks last night took a long time.

There is actually a dedicated Sportscar thread; might be best putting these guides in that.

It gets lost in General Motorsport - should have a separate category - lots of posts are more about the event than the actual race

Some of the sections like Karting and Drag Racing have minimal threads in last 6 months or so.
