Following F1's two-week summer shutdown and a chance to recharge the batteries, the sport roars back into action with today's Belgian Grand Prix.

A year ago, the event was overshadowed by torrential rain across the two days, with qualifying badly affected and the race abandoned after two laps behind the safety car.

The conditions helped throw up an unusual result as George Russell qualified second in an uncompetitive Williams, and thanks to what unfolded on Sunday, he secured the runner-up spot behind Red Bull's Max Verstappen.

It appears there is zero likelihood of a repeat as the weather is set fair but, regardless, the Spa-Francorchamps circuit always delivers entertainment.

With Verstappen and Red Bull looking to cement their leads in the drivers' and constructors' championships, here are all the details you need ahead of the event.

GPFans' F1 BELGIAN GP PREDICTION

It looks crazy doesn't it? Verstappen starts 15th yet he is still the favourite ahead of the man on pole in Ferrari's Carlos Sainz.

Verstappen, however, has been lightning quick across the weekend, finishing just over six-tenths of a second clear of Sainz in qualifying and so it is no surprise the bookmakers are continuing to favour the Red Bull driver.

WINNER: Max Verstappen
