Follow live radio and text coverage of the Belgian Grand Prix at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, Belgium, 27-29 August.
Formula 1 is back after a summer break following the dramatic events at the Hungarian Grand Prix, where Alpine’s Esteban Ocon capitalised on a first lap multi-car pile-up to claim an unlikely maiden victory.
Lewis Hamilton battled from last to finish second – following Sebastian Vettel’s post-race disqualification for a fuel irregularity – to regain the World Championship lead for the first time since May.
The result extended Hamilton’s title lead to eight points going into Sunday’s race after his title rival Max Verstappen fell victim to the incident-strewn wet start, but drove his damaged Red Bull to finish ninth.
