Coronavirus: the Spa-Francorchamps meeting postponed

IMG, the organizer of World RX, unsurprisingly had to postpone the Spa-Francorchamps meeting to an unknown date. Initially scheduled for the weekend of May 17, the Belgian event was to launch the season after the postponements of the meetings in Barcelona (Spain) and Montalegre (Portugal).

“Due to directives issued by the National Council of Belgium which include the suspension of outdoor events in the country due to the Covid-19 epidemic, the World RX meeting at Spa-Francorchamps had to be postponed. This decision was taken into consideration and after consultation with the FIA, the Belgian Federation and the organizers of the event., indicated the World RX communicators.

The Spa meeting will now be scheduled for the weekend of October 4, subject to FIA approval and an improvement in the situation.
