Verstappen admits Spa win "would be special"

Red Bull's Max Verstappen has explained that the Belgian Grand Prix feels like a home race for him, as tens of thousands of Dutch fans travel with him to their neighbouring country to support him.

Verstappen, who has been in a better spell of form after a dramatic start of the season, will be eager to get the crowd on their feet at Spa Francorchamps this year. Last year, things were looking good for Verstappen, until his car gave up on him for the umpteenth time of the season, leading to him parking his car right in front of a stand full of orange-dressed fans.

Still, despite the massive disappointment from last season, Spa Francorchamps will always have a special place in the heart of Verstappen.

"Running at Spa is always special," the 20-year-old told FormulaPassion.

Describing the track, the Dutchman is obviously very taken by the legendary track.
