TORA BRITISH GT ESPORTS CHAMPIONSHIP 2020 - Meeting 5 Driver's Briefing (Spa-Francorchamps)

Welcome to the 5th meeting of the 2020 Season of the British GT eSport Championship! For this round, we head to Belgium to the famous Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps.  Even though Spa might live in the shadow of its French cousin Le Mans, Spa is clearly one of the classic race circuits and is beloved by drivers and spectators alike, known for its long straights and famous corners such as Eau Rouge and Raidillon.  In 2014, Spa became the regular non-British round in the series, tying in with the 24 Hours of Spa race which would typically be the following weekend.  Other circuits that British GT used to visit during their non-British rounds include Zandvoort and Nürburgring.
