F1 travels straight from the Hungarian GP to Spa-Francorchamps to conclude a frantic period of four races in five weeks.
The Belgian GP will run the sprint race format, last used at the Austrian GP at the start of July, which means more points and prizes are on offer.
However, it will require someone stopping Max Verstappen and Red Bull which have become an unstoppable force lately.
Fresh from a flawless victory in Hungary, which was the Dutch diver’s seventh in a row and also saw Red Bull break the record for most consecutive F1 wins with 12, Verstappen now leads the F1 world championship standings by 110 points from team-mate Sergio Perez.
McLaren, meanwhile, will aim to maintain its upturn in form that has seen Lando Norris secure back-to-back podiums for the first time in his F1 career.
With another F1 sprint weekend, it means qualifying for the grand prix takes place on Friday afternoon, as Saturday becomes a standalone sprint qualifying and sprint race.
