- Here's an F1 2020 onboard lap around the old Spa-Francorchamps layout with Max Verstappen in his Red Bull RB16 challenger.
The old Spa layout was used between 1939-1978, and was 14.1km long. Going around this track with a modern F1 car means that it's mostly flat out throughout the majority of the circuit, with very very few turns and corners through the whole circuit. It was interesting to see the differences compared to the modern layout, one of them being the Eau Rouge and Raidillon corners which required me brake more compared to the modern layout.

Old spa woud definitely make the engine overheating.
Bahrain 2020 would like to speak to you outside.
No, the engine gets enough air to cool down at a constant 300+, and they can use a mexico like chassis for better cooling if need be
WEC would Love old spa
@@jorritvanderkooi939 but Mercedes will definitely have a problem if they are behind any car or two, they either get a slip stream and suffer overheating or escape the slip stream and be slow.
I think the tires would suffer too, for being at such high speeds for long periods of time, probably there would be tons of blistering and more frequent stops
Amazing how pretty much everything is flatout...
And it still took me almost 3 minutes to do a lap, crazy
edward furrow about 200 mph
Only 4 times the car braked:
-Eau Rouge (unlike today's flatout Eau Rouge).
-Les Combes (yep, that left-hander _was_ Les Combes).
-Approaching La Source (after 2 minutes of flaoutness and a couple of non-throttling kinks).
-La Source itself (only proper heavy-brake).
This circuit's run through the towns was crazily fast and long!!!
@@5furrow More or less in the third braking zone (approaching La Source). Consider also that La Source was further from when it sits today
@LeGM yep, but the topspeed gained (334kmh), if my maths sucks thats over 210-220 mph
“How much of this track is flat out?”
Spa - “yes”
So.. Why does NASCAR doesn't lear- ... Yeah, "learning" is a difficukt word, there.
Race car drivers of the 60s were fearless holy crap
To get the full 60s experience you'd have to play this video at .5 playing speed
They dont even have fancy helmet and tires too
@@insertname8889 0,75 I'd say. Late 60s F1 cars weren't slow 😯
[[Insert Name]] because of the less drag, f1 cars would have been hitting almost the same vmax. A porsche 917 topped out at 220mph in the late 60s. Modern F1 cars aren't designed for top speed in the same way that race cars used to be.
@@insertname8889 this is a simulation of how it was before. Far scarier and surely not 50% of todays' speed (take into account the intro and outro timings)

F1s of the '60s were basically tinfoil-made bathtubs suspended on four motorbike wheels with a 500 HPs. engine running on high octane, hyperflammable petrol strapped in their back, bottlecaps for brakes and no wings (and no downforce), let alone robotised gearbox or electronic driving aids, to help you. And they raced on this kind of track, such as this old SPA which makes the Nordschleife looking like a marble track in comparison.
Driving in Formula 1 in those years basically required complete indifference to end your career whether dead or alive... Surviving was a success in itself.
What a comment
Good old Green Hell, famously easy to drive
@@REGSTER1000 Not easy at all, but old SPA was probably even more of a deathtrap; the 1960 Belgian Grand Prix even has been the only occasion in which two drivers have been killed during the same race day (not counting the 1994 San Marino GP, with Ratzenberger losing his Life during practice, and Senna during the race).
@@TenorCantusFirmus I agree, but I would rather choose Paul Ricard for the marbles comparison then something so brutal and beautifull to watch like the Nordschleife :D
@@REGSTER1000 It just was an hyperbole, I wanted to emphasize how fearsome looked, and actually was old SPA.
so basically he's driving on a highway
Sort of
It's flat out for a modern formula 1 car, in the 60s they would definitely had to lift and brake in most of these corners. Remember, no downforce back then
Hala Madrid
welcome to the early days of Grand Prix racing...
I see why Ferrari removed their brakes
facts
Is this a joke or one of enzo's crazy ideas
@@ethanporciello8807 i recommend you watch Monza 2020
@@ethanporciello8807 joke, it's a reference
at one point watching this, I thought we were never gonna make it back to the starting line.
Freaking highway hypnosis on an F1 track
Only track with 9 DRS zones.
Ferrari would be 3 laps down by the end of the 1st lap this year . . .
And Williams at least 10 laps on last year car
Haas would actually spend some time on track.
Then they'd crash.
Mercedes would loose 2 laps each straight, due to "dirty air".
ERS recharge - "Am I a joke to you?"
The breaking for that final corner would be horrendous having gone basically a minute without touching the breaks!
Somehow, drivers where capable of breaking in the last corner back in the day. Even AMG Rot Sau, a big robust heavy ass car was capable to complete the 1971 24hrs of Spa. Well, those guys knew how to do it.
@@danilaodatunagem7193 It's not about the drivers, it's about the cars. Modern F1 brakes don't really bite until they reach 350°C.
@@aumpauskar4653 just have to start braking early to get it to temp
@@istoleurfaceha3527 Just feather the brake for about 10 second before the hairpin and they'll be up to temp.
60's drivers: those are super technical córners.
2020: Easy flat
Love the technology of our cars
Before 1971 spa was in fact the fastest track on the f1 calendar which is not surprising considering the amount of long straights and fast turns this track had
The great Jim Clark hated spa yet he still dominated at this daunting iconic race track by winning 4 years in a row from 1962-1965
An F1 race on this track will be impossible without refueling.
1966 F1 drivers: hold my seatbelt
Why? The distance would still be about 300km per race which would mean less laps than usual but not refuelling, they also don‘t have to refuel in Monza which is essesiantially full throttle too.
@@davidpape5548 True, I didn't remember the rules, about time and distance. Thank you.
@@kpruneri Back in 1966, many cars still didn't have seatbelt. And they drove on this kind of tracks!
Wrong
Old Monza: "Speed. I. Am. Speed!"
Old Spa: "Hello there!"

@@fuzli You're one of culture, I see
AVUS : Guys, guys there's no need for a fight...
Bono, my engine is gone.
Hamilton still wins the race
Sbinalla
Get in there Lewis
This track was terrifying in Grand Prix Legends with the period correct cars.
engeneer: "so how you want your brakes to be set up"
driver: "no"
No brakes on
1:15 the dangerous Masta curve
Damn. Respect to Dan Gurney, Jim Clark, Jackie Stewart, Graham Hill, Jacky Ickx, and the rest of them. True courage was required back in the day.
Wow they nailed the engine sound
R.I.P to the battery 😂
I love how this ist pretty much eau rouge, raidillion and one straight... and then all of a sudden HAIRPIN xD
That hairpin is la source it still exists today
With the actual cars speed it would be a 400 km/h track
One mistake or tire/brake malfunction and you could end up in someone’s house at 300+ km/h
Hamilton tyres won't even last for 1 lap....
only on radio tho
Bonooooooo
”Bono my tires a dead” 10 minutes later, Lewis Hamilton won the Belgian Grand-Prix
_After Raidillon_
Bono, these tyres are dead
@Chad Eren you are 9 months late. But not too late.
60's drivers had some iron balls to run on this circuit. Respect for them.
Rip engine
Wow didn't expect it to be this amazing!
Wonderful. Can you do a lap of old Avus?
THANK YOU FOR THIS !!! -fan from St. Louis, MIssouri, USA.
I don’t blame you for closing DRS through Masta.
What I'd really like to see is Max running a sim of Jim Clark's '65 car. Running today's cars is interesting but it doesn't reflect how difficult and scary the track really was.
Here's a period correct run:
czcams.com/video/G5eVPUaPK-A/video.html
Adding to everything that was already commented, it is worth noting how Raidillon has been smoothed over the years; I think that bringing back this older version of the corner would also bring back some sort of challenge to the drivers navigating the curve, and it would also help slowing down the speeds carried trough that zone (although, it would be at the expense of runoff area right after Eau Rouge).
Lewis: Bono, My Tires Are DEAD
Bono: Lewis, This Is The Formation Lap.
“How many DRS zones does this circuit have?”
Old spa: yes
Wow this is much better then todays
50 seconds (23%) faster than John Surtees managed for pole position in 1966. With modern eyes it's hard to imagine how a track like this was ok to race on, even 23% slower. 7 out of 15 starters crashed out early in the 1966 race too.
My FAVORITE track. Love Monaco, Monza, old Nurburgring, but ahhhh ...old Spa !!! 💙
2:35 This part sounded so weird cuz all we’ve been hearing is a flat out car for 2 and a half minutes lol
Fun fact: it was allowed to drive around the similar old spa until the year 2000 were it stopped and its outer layer was used for public roads as the government said
So many high speed corner there.. so much fun.
Pireli tyres: AM I JOKE TO YOU
crazy to think about that Juan Manuel Fangio raced on this Circuit and won so many Title's back then.
So smooth
Its like stage one of a WRC rally, how bloody fast 😊
That would be sheer madness.
The old Stavelot is such a stunning corner! Really curious what it might look like if this was still part of the modern track🙃
It is my favourite place on the track. But we have to say that the Masta kink was the most dangerous part of any track in the world. This senction was extreme
deadly. Imagine that with wet condition.
@@user-bf5hk6hk3lone thing remember is there is a picture of Stirling Moss driving through Masta Kink with a broken suspension in wet condition. Those men in the 60s must be daredevils
my man right here driving around the whole Europe rn
There was no need to change anything with this. Perfectly safe.
The curves are just slightly arced straight for any F1 from the late 1970's up to now. ONLY one actual braking zone and two ease off of the throttle curves. That was crazy.
So...
"Flat around here"
"Flat around here"
"Bit of curb"
"And again... Flat around here"
Taking the whole turn with drs
mad lad
I dozed off and came to, and the lap isn't done yet.. what a circuit
That super long straight and then slamming the (cold) brake for the hairpin. Rip
This looks like fun
Lol, remember having to change down for quite a few of those corners on GP legends
yeah, the amount of downforce on modern cars means you can just put hold down on the loud pedal for everything except la source
Best Overtaking Spot: *_whole track_*
This track makes me feel like I’d lose my way around it
You're literally going through a town haha, would need directions just to get around the track
Mitsos1311 hahaha the drivers would need to change their MFD on the steering wheel to a GPS instead of the lap times
House beside the circuit : i'm in danger
Nice video! Congrats! What about old Interlagos circuit?
Amazing wow 😍
14.1 km in 2:52. Average speed: 295.8km/h. That's hard to wrap my head around.
Pescarolo has the record on a Matra 670 > 260 km/h
Hi! What about Mosport Park, Vallelunga and La Sarthe? Congratulations, great video!
Thank you! I've been waiting for someone to ask to do Mosport Park haha, I'll try and get all your suggestions done soon :)
Seeing modern cars on old circuits just further illustrates how fast and dangerous they were.
I would never trust that i could be bored from an onboard lap
Hi Mitsos,
Great video, I like all the classic track videos you made.
Are you using F1 2020? If yes, how can I get and add the classic tracks, so I could try them?
I 'd be grateful for the explanation.
I left a comment earlier, but I can't see it anywhere now.
Thanks
GS
Crazy
It's a shame we couldn't race on some of these sold tracks looks fun.
love thedr
0:05 Safety First! (Hi, Marshalls! 😂)
The engine sound is so realistic
Even after being "nurtured", still the best track in the calendar. And it is no small feat to update old track like that to modern standards while keeping it's identity.
Hi Mitsos, can you do a lap around Jarama, Pescara, Misano or Silverstone (the old layout) please. Thank you.
Yes, will do! Thank you for the suggestions
I'd add Montjuich Park to that list too.
It would be cool to see a trackmap
Imagine doing a race with 20 cars around this.
Like the Isle of Man TT for cars. Nuts. Death awaits
1:15 the masta kink, according to jackie stewart one of the if not the most difficult corners in the world
i dont blame him for that as its a high speed chicane on a otherwise basically flat out track even by 1960s standards with no safety measures in place for driver or vehicle errors
This looks like a road trip you'd take with your family
What is the program you are running that on. I love messing around on the old circuit’s
Playing this on Assetto Corsa, this game allows so many mods that it's crazy. Playing on PC, you can find the mods of the cars and tracks in my descriptions!
Mitsos1311 It’s now available for the Xbox, I’ll have to check that out. Love racing the old tracks. If they are available on the xbox as well, that would be great.
Eau Rouge is the most dangerous corner in 50's 60's 70's and 80's
Hello, what would be the average speed of that wonderful lap
THIS is the Temple Of Speed
DRS zone : the whole track
The track seems like an engine builder's nightmare
Makes LeMans look like Daytona.
For LeMans for WEC on Mulsanne you are flat out down that straightaway.
Daytona I’m talking Road Course.
I think group c cars have raced on this layout and they went around 350 topspeed
Imagine running on a drs on the long long straight.
2:14 minutes out of 2:52 is flat out.
Man, I will never complain about the new Las Vegas track.
a slight lift at the Masta Kink
Damn. This feels like a 4-wheel version of Isle of Man. It's scary
Imagine you are someone in that house enjoying dinner and a car gets a puncture in that turn
This explains why so many people died on the old track. It looks like a complete deathtrap.
How many drs zones are there??
Would love to see if possible, Laps of Anderstorp, the old Argentina circuit, Sachsenring and Buddh International Circuit.
Thanks for the suggestions, I already have a video up for the old Argentina circuit in Buenos Aires
@@Mitsos1311 should have added, can you do the ‘95 to ‘98 layout of it down the line?
Did this circuit cross into Germany and France too?
In the modern spa u can go on that hill corner without braking too much as long as you have a high entry speed
This would make for exiting races. To see who is going to blow up their engine first
On what game did you do this or did you have to do this on a simulator?
This is in Assetto Corsa
