Is anyone planning a trip to Belgium for the f1 this coming season?

I am in the middle of sorting my trip out.
Leaving newcastle to catch the ferry to leave from hull to zeebrugge dates 16th august, (over night travel)
Staying In Brugge for 3nights
Then driving down to liege to stay in hotel just off the main road down into spa circuit
Then driving back up to zeebrugge for the ferry home on 25th (over night travel)

Is anyone doing this or a similar route

I did this last year. I was a great trip and i would love to go again, but not sure this year. Last years was a Christmas present from my Girlfriend, so had no choice to go, but this year with work commitments, I'm not sure if it will be possible.

We did a weeks trip. One night in Bruges, one in Ghent, one in Brussels, one in Rochefort and then over to Spa for 2 nights.

Personally, i actually preferred Ghent to Bruges, and would defiantly recommend heading there if only for a day as its very close to Bruges, and in the right direction to Spa.

The carpark after the Race was a nightmare and took about 2 hours to get clear on the Sunday, but even with that hold up, we were still back home in out beds just after midnight on the Sunday (with the time difference). It obviously helps living in SW London and having the channel tunnel close by, but i think i recorded it as 211 miles carpark to home (or similar).

Great event, and a must see. I couldn't get over how much gradient the track has compared to what you see on TV.
