Blimey Andy - i don't think that its a definite closure just yet and am sure 'they will come to some arrangement', i.e. stringent noise testing or similar draconian measures...

Glad i went there this year!

If it does indeed close, Shimmy Shoemacher wont be best pleased!

Well it looks like this weekends 6 hour race will be held.

I'm affraid this story won't be the last. The extreme left/green movement is strong in central Europe and we will hear more of this in the future. Very sad. The history of a place like Spa should safe guard it's future regardless. And for local residents to complain now! What the fuck have they been doing for the past 60+ years!! Haven't they noticed it before!! If they close that place I'll be over there protesting.

Rant over!

.......for now.

The complaints from people living close to any motorsport venue would be best dealt with by air-strikes.
