Tickets for this years 24 hours in Spa are now available. It’s been a while since I’ve been but looking forward to it. I’ll no doubt visit Reims on the way down.

I hope you plan the charging stations for your trip best of luck.

Not an issue. I’ve driven Le Mans many times. It’s a single short charge on the direct route to Spa. Via Reims is similar to Le Mans and that’s very easy. Just sync up with lunches and supermarket if you don’t want to wait for the 10-15 mins. The car plans it for you anyway so don’t need to even think about it. It’s nice to have a short break after 3-4 hours of driving.

Have a great time we are only in a 1966 Cortina and tour France twice a year.

That’s awesome. Did you make the anniversary last year?

I’ll be taking a group that have never been to Spa. I’m sure they will be blown away by the circuit. I prefer the circuit and the way it sits within a valley much more than Le Mans. It’s really scenic. Although I do expect we will be back to Le Mans next year.

We are staying on this campsite Camping Parc des Sources. Has anyone stayed here before? Is there good transport available to the circuit? Happy to take taxi as well. I need to know the typical running hours for anything that is available so we don’t get caught out and stuck at the circuit.

Any tips on parking.
We are staying in Spa from Wednesday but noticed there is a 35 Euro parking area at the track which is sold out.
Are there any other parking options.

I've been looking for some time and missed the P6 BIS tickets (even though I tried to buy when it said limited availability), not seen a single other option. Very disappointing/frustrating.

Hi guys, looking to go to Spa for the 4 hours race on the 24th August, have we left getting tickets and parking too late? Hotels seem to still have rooms available, mostly around four miles outside the circuit. Is this too far out, what’s the traffic like on race day.
Never been, but missed out on LeMans the past two years so thought this maybe a quieter and more relaxed event?

I used taxis when we travelled from Spa town to the circuit. I called up a local taxi firm who were great at taking us there and bringing us back when needed.

Don't worry about paid parking. We were worried when we were in the same situation at the 24 hour event. But we parked ok in P5/P6 and walked down through the woods.
P5/P6 are left at the roundabout by the fuel station and on your left about 100 meters along the road.
