F1 at Eau Rouge - The Final Time?
I have painted many scenes of Eau Rouge at Spa over the years - half a dozen from this viewpoint.
With Spa dropped from the F1 calendar, here is a tribute to this great corner with one of the greatest drivers to have won there - just finished and delivered yesterday! Michael leads Rubens in the last F1 GP there (for the time being at least). The painting is 40 x 30ins. It was commissioned by a customer in Kent, UK. Let's hope it is back in 2004. |

Hopefully you will paint a CART car from this viewpoint!
BTW, it could be a Vodafone ad... so many banners! They really know where to sponsor! (Ferrari, Eau Rouge, Monza, Man Utd.!) |

Well done!
I stood at a point close to there this year (only in practice though) and the scene has been captured beautifully. If only I could draw and paint like that! |

Top picture as always Andrew.
I can even see the shed where I had frites with (far too much) mayo at the 6Hrs meeting in September. |
