Coming to Spa is always a great experience for me. It is hands down the best circuit I have driven to date, so always look forward to this Belgium round.
The first practice session was more about learning the circuit again on a partially greasy and green surface so the main thing was to just get laps round the track. I had some work to do for the second session but hadn’t used new tyres yet and was on some old tyres that had been flat-spotted in the previous race event. In the second practice I progressed and took some time off the fastest lap but with the lap being as long as 2:04 and having around 17 corners you can lose time very easily. The problem I had on my new tyres was various yellow flags at corners and not getting the free space I needed so with plenty in reserve I ended up around the 22nd mark after the first day.
