Lucky Escape at Eau Rouge | Belgium Bike Grand Prix 1985 | 250cc Race

Set deep in the Ardennes mountains, the 1980's version of the famous Spa Francorchamps truly remains one of the World's greatest GP circuits. At 7 kilometres long this track has everything. Flat out straights, up and down hill gradients, the unique 'Eau Rouge' s-bend, a chicane, a hairpin and fast sweeping bends of varying radii!

To flavour this classic circuit, watch the GP stars of the time riding at ten-tenths and, it would often appear at eleven-tenths as the 1985 title chase reaches its climax. Freddie Spencer demonstrates his usual impeccable style whilst Christian Sarron and Eddie Lawson swap second place time and again in this on-the-limit battle which lasts most of the race.
