After the summer break it's almost time to go racing again as we get set for this weekend's Belgian Grand Prix. But before we get stuck into this weekend's action, we decided to have a look back at some of the most dramatic moments at Spa-Francorchamps from the Formula 1 archive.
The famous old circuit has produced some memorable moments from some of F1’s all time greats, including the collision between Ayrton Senna and Nigel Mansell in 1987.
Perhaps the most unforgettable moment came in 1998 as Michael Schumacher hit the back of David Coulthard as he attempted to lap the McLaren driver, which resulted in quite the scene in the pit lane.
Spa has also seen some quite impressive overtakes over the years especially from Mark Webber and Max Verstappen, as both drivers put their bravery on show as they looked to gain positions. And of course who can forget the quite extraordinary scene involving Ralf Schumacher on the grid in 2000.
