The Spa-Francorchamps circuit began work on November 15, 2021. These renovations concern the track and the infrastructure. The Belgian track will indeed host the 24 Hours of Spa EWC Motos on June 4 and 5, 2022 and for this FIM grade C homologation is necessary. To this end, clearances are widened and gravel traps are installed. Photos of this work have been published.
