2024 Belgian Grand Prix 

Round 14

Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps

Stavelot, Belgium

Sunday, 28 July 2024

 
Max Verstappen will be determined to continue his dominance at the Belgian Grand Prix by securing his fourth successive win in Stavelot.

 
Most recent race 

 
The Red Bull Racing driver failed to secure a podium spot at the Hungarian Grand Prix on 21 July, the most recent race in the 2024 Formula One World Championship season.

 
Verstappen started on the third grid and slipped up and finished fifth, and therefore, he collected just 10 points from the entertaining race. 

 
Formula One title ambitions

 
The three-time Dutch Sportsman of the Year remains at the top of the World Drivers' Championship standings having collected 265 points.

 
However, Verstappen is now 76 points ahead of second-placed Lando Norris of McLaren and he is under pressure to win at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps.

 
Why Verstappen could win the 2024 Belgian Grand Prix

 
The Belgium-born driver has been unstoppable in the Belgian Grand Prix over the years having impressively won the last three races in 2021, 2022 and 2023.

 
Verstappen, who is winless in the last three races in the current season, will be keen to bounce back to winning ways in his country of birth.

 
What did he say?

 
"Of course I’m not happy," Verstappen said after finishing fifth at the 2024 Hungarian Grand Prix.

 
"On a day when we’re already lacking pace compared to McLaren you try and hope we do the right things with the strategy, which today was not the case.

 
"Naturally that frustrates me because I want things to be done better. I’m realistic. Today we couldn’t have beaten the McLarens, but a P3 was on the cards if we would have been on it a bit more."
