WATCH: Webber vs Alonso, and Schumacher’s fury – 5 dramatic moments from Belgian GP history
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.
