Circuit character

Seven kilometres through the Ardennes with 100 metres of elevation change and a climate all of its own: rain on one sector, sunshine on another. Eau Rouge–Raidillon into the Kemmel Straight is still the sport's definitive compromise between wing and bravery.

Where the passes happen

  • Les Combes (T7) after the Kemmel Straight
  • Bus Stop chicane (T18–19)
  • the Eau Rouge–Raidillon tow
