History
The Belgian Grand Prix is one of F1's legendary races - mostly down to the Spa-Francorchamps circuit which has held the majority of the events. The circuit held Belgium's first national race in 1925 - it was won by Antonio Ascari, whose son Alberto would win the race in 1952 and 1953 en route to two world championships. The event was an obvious choice for inclusion as one of seven races in the first world championship calendar in 1950.
