Belgian GP organisers worried about future of Francorchamps race

By on

André Maes, the Director of Spa Grand Prix, is worried about the future of the Belgian Grand Prix. The organisers are hoping to extend the contract for the race at the historic Spa-Francorchamps venue beyond 2012, but are aware of the immense interest of other countries to host their own F1 race.

André Maes said to the Belgian newspapers: "There is no lack of candidates to host a F1 race. Even France lost its Grand Prix, so Belgium will have to be very careful and apply for a contract extension before 2012."
