Hotels for 2027 TotalEnergies 6h of Spa | Thursday/Friday

Endurance racing brings a different rhythm to a race weekend: long stints, driver rotations, and strategy that unfolds over hours rather than laps. Teams work through changing light and weather as the day wears on, with pit stops and tyre calls becoming as gripping as the action on track. Fans wander the paddock and grandstands more freely than at a sprint race, soaking up the atmosphere between sessions. The layout's blend of fast sweeps and technical corners punishes mistakes and rewards consistency across the full distance.

Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps is one of the greatest racing venues in the world, seven kilometres of forest roads, iconic elevation change and famous corners from La Source to Eau Rouge, Raidillon and the Bus Stop chicane in the Ardennes hills of eastern Belgium. The nearest town is Stavelot, a pleasant Wallonian market town with restaurants and medieval streets; Spa itself, two kilometres away, adds thermal baths and a famous casino. The entire Ardennes region fills for any major race weekend, so book ahead the moment plans are confirmed.
