Spa-Francorchamps, home of the Belgian Grand Prix, is a firm favourite among Formula 1 drivers and fans. It's home too to one of the most iconic corners in motorsport: the Eau Rouge/Raidillon combination.

Round 14 of the 2024 F1 season on July 26-28, which concludes the first half of the campaign before a four-week summer break, comes at a time when the competitive order looks as close as it's ever been in the ground effect era.
