Stroll not a "huge fan" of Spa-Francorchamps

Spa-Francorchamps is one of the most popular tracks in Formula One, especially with the drivers - but not Lance Stroll, he has revealed that he is not a "huge fan" of the Belgian circuit.

Williams driver Stroll may not be a big lover of Spa, but he admits that he does appreciate its history and that other drivers love the track.

Stroll has explained that the track has never really brought the best of his full potential out of him.

The Canadian's mother was born in Belgium, so Stroll does say that it almost feels like a second home race to him, after the Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal.

"I have never really been a huge fan of this track as it has never clicked for me, although I appreciate that many drivers do love it," Stroll revealed to The Checkered Flag.

"However, it is my second home race, as my mother was born in Belgium, so it does have a special meaning for me."

Stroll finished 11th in his debut at Spa last season and he says that the weather can play a huge part across the whole weekend, with the extreme length of the track (7km long - longest on the F1 calendar) - the weather can sometimes be different on some sections on the track.

"It is a long lap with some amazing sections and the weather can play an imporant part - it can change in a second with rain on one side of the circuit and the other side dry, and then anything can happen," Stroll added.

"It also has a lot of history and I know the fans will enjoy it, whatever the weather!"
