Belgium’s Spa-Francorchamps circuit was and remains a daunting and rewarding place for the best drivers in the world. Fifty years ago, on the original public road circuit, average lap speeds for Formula 1 as well as Group 5 sports cars routinely reached 150 mph. In the 1970 edition of the 1000Km race, the winning Gulf-Porsche 917 driven by Jo Siffert and Brian Redman had set a record by averaging 149.42 mph over the entire race distance. Gulf team rivals Siffert and Pedro Rodriguez had famously touched fenders entering Eau Rouge and risked knocking each other off the track.
