Lewis Hamilton heads to Spa this weekend with a 37-point advantage in the drivers’ championship, but fully aware that Belgium has not been a happy hunting ground.

The runaway leader returned to winning ways last time out in Barcelona with one of his most dominant victories in the Spanish Grand Prix, thrashing Max Verstappen by more than 24 seconds as he lapped the field up to third place.

But Spa is far from his strongest track, having only won three times in 13 visits, and in fact he has failed to finish more times than he has topped the podium at the Ardennes circuit - something that he cannot say for any other established track on the calendar.

It offers championship rivals Max Verstappen and Valtteri Bottas a glimmer of hope in their battle with the six-time world champion, and there will be further factors that come into play over the course of the weekend.

Pirelli have deployed the softer range of compound tyres for this weekend’s race, with Verstappen utilising them at Silverstone to take his one and only victory of the season, while rain is expected to seriously impact Sunday that could produce the most unpredictable race of the season so far.

The Belgian Grand Prix takes place across 28 - 30 August 2020.

All European races will be held behind closed doors, meaning that the only way fans will be able to see the action is on television.

In the UK, Sky Sports continue to hold the exclusive rights for F1, with Channel 4 only able to show the British Grand Prix live as they are restricted to highlights coverage the rest of the year.
