Hamilton and Kovalainen: “Spa is one of the best circuits on the calendar”
Lewis Hamilton
“Like Monaco, Silverstone and Monza, Spa is one of the historic circuits that I learned about on television when I was younger. That's why it's a little more special for me, because it's easy to imagine the great heroes of the past who competed here. It's a wonderful circuit, a place where you can push the car to the limit: driving on Eau Rouge, Pouhon or Blanchimont is an incredible feeling, your whole body is at the limit and you try to push to be even more fast. I love Spa, it should always be present in the Formula 1 calendar.”
Heikki Kovalainen
“I think everyone in Formula 1 is waiting for Spa. For the drivers, the circuit represents a fantastic challenge: unlike other circuits, Spa is a track where the driver's confidence and commitment can make the difference. The sweeping curves at high speed require drivers who are brave and willing to take risks – you can have a big accident if you make a mistake. I love this place, I think it's the best circuit on the calendar.”
