How long is Spa-Francorchamps' current Grand Prix Circuit?

The story behind the answer

Spa-Francorchamps’ current Grand Prix Circuit is 7.004 kilometres long.

The circuit is located near Francorchamps in Stavelot, Wallonia, Belgium, and is famous for its dramatic elevation changes and fast corners. The modern Grand Prix layout includes celebrated sections such as Eau Rouge and Raidillon, Pouhon and Blanchimont.

The present layout dates from the major redevelopment that produced the modern permanent circuit, while the Grand Prix configuration with its current pit-lane arrangement is commonly identified as the 2007–present layout. It has 19 turns and measures about 4.352 miles.

Older versions of Spa were much longer. The original public-road circuit stretched for roughly 15 kilometres, so historical references can produce very different figures. The 7.004-kilometre measurement is the one used for the current Formula One Grand Prix course.
