Just been reading about McLaren's pre-season boasts on here - http://f1.racing-live.com/en/index.html

I happened to notice their advert for the F1-Club that uses a map of Spa in it's advertising. Now I know Spa had a break from F1 but I don't recall any changes made to the circuit. By this I mean on the advert the section of track from Stavelot to the La Source hairpin looks very odd, I know the bustop chicane is there but whats the other wiggly bit, have they emascalated Blanchimont? Or has it just been created by someone with no idea of where it goes?

You might have to click on a couple of news stories until the advert comes round

Looks like a graphic artist's impression of the circuit.

As far as I'm aware it is still this shape:


And what a damn fine shape it is.

As I thought

Hope the weather will be changable, as that always provides some action.

Think it is actually that bendy there. I stood by the bus stop (chicane) to watch the race a couple of years ago, and you couldn't see La Source (or most of the pits) from where I was, and there was quite a long bend between there and Stavelot. Might be a wee bit exadurated in that big, but I'm not sure.
