As one of the traditional meetings of the beginning of autumn on the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, the Racing Festival organised by the Royal Automobile Club de Spa is finally back! After the calendar worries in 2019 and the consequences of the health crisis in 2020, all the lights are on green, and Pierre Delettre is delighted, with his staff, to be back on 'the most beautiful circuit in the world' and with customers known and recognised for their loyalty...
"Within the R.A.C. Spa, we have mainly hung in there for the last two years, and if we believed that we would be able to resume our activities on the circuit last June within the framework of the Spa Euro Race, the exceptional weather conditions decided otherwise, explains Pierre Delettre. This time, everything is looking good and we are delighted to be back on the Spa-Francorchamps circuit...".
As tradition dictates, the 2021 Racing Festival will be as exciting as it is varied, with the spectacular and competitive Radical Series, the popular Supercar Challenge of our Dutch friends from V-Max, who will also be present with the Ford Fiesta Sprint Trophy and the Mazda MX-5 Cup. Two sprints reserved for Ferraris will surprise many. And then there will be this round of the Legend Boucles Series, or when the R.A.C. Spa varies the pleasures within its own organisations...
The Ardennes toboggan will indeed be the setting for a regularity race on a circuit, according to the same regulations as the Legend Boucles @ Bastogne. The idea is clearly to apply the 'Legend Boucles' concept in several ways," continues Pierre Delettre. We will therefore see many competitors from our favourite rally, the largest in Belgium in terms of the number of cars at the start, who will play the high precision card on the 7 kilometres of the legendary route. The R.A.C. Spa hasn't invented anything, but we want to bring this type of event back to the forefront, reserved for old racing cars...".
A Racing Festival with many flavours awaits you on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 October. See you in Spa !
