Formula One must listen to calls led by Lewis Hamilton to modify the Belgian Grand Prix circuit Spa-Francorchamps following the recent deaths of two drivers. According to reports, the Belgian Grand Prix is expected to win a fresh two-year contract to remain on the F1 calendar until 2025.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While the development is welcome news for most F1 fans, the sport\u2019s authorities must listen to drivers about some of the dangerous conditions at Spa. Several stars have raised concerns about the track in recent years, particularly following the deaths of Dilano van \u2019t Hoff and Anthoine Hubert.<\/p>\n

Van \u2018t Hoff died this summer at a rain-soaked Formula Regional European by Alpine Championship. The motorsport driver was just 18 years old when he lost his life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Formula Two driver Hubert was killed on the same track under the same circumstances four years earlier. Motorsport stars have since called for changes and after the Belgian Grand Prix was given a further two-year F1 contract, those individuals must now be listened to.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Mercedes star Hamilton said in June: \u201cI think it\u2019s definitely devastating to see that we\u2019ve lost two youngsters in such a short amount of time. But I do trust the FIA, they\u2019ve done such a great job with safety. I know that\u2019s such a focal point for them.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey make so many changes year on year at every circuit and I\u2019m sure they\u2019ll be looking very much into Eau Rouge and whether or not we can improve that.\u201d<\/p>\n

An infamous part of the track changes elevation. The seven-time world champion added: \u201cWe do need to make some changes because clearly, you\u2019re coming over a hill, you can\u2019t see anything in the bad weather conditions. This has happened now twice, so we definitely need to take a step.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Lance Stroll also criticised the Eau Rouge and Raidillon complex, insisting:\u00a0 \u201cEvery time we go through there, we put our lives on the line.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Esteban Ocon said that the visibility for drivers is a huge issue, saying drivers are often \u201cblind\u201d. He said: \u201cThere needs to be a review on everything that happened. It is a tragedy.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe visibility is definitely the main factor in that race. For most of us, we drive blind in that moment so I\u2019m sure the FIA is looking into it to try and improve the situation. The issue is that we should not learn the hard way. It\u2019s a very sad moment for motorsport.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The onus is now on F1 bosses to make the changes to ensure drivers feel safe at the Belgian GP.\u00a0<\/p>\n
