Some observers feel Schumacher's 1995 European GP win at the Nürburgring was a better drive, but the Spa-Francorchamps race in August of that season takes the laurels hands down for high-speed drama, courage and exciting tactical duels.

And the first of these may be the last Grand Prix on the Hockenheimring in its current state: it's the second longest circuit currently to Spa, and it's the second fastest, to Monza.

Grand Prix is their best album so far, just shading Bandwagonesque for sheer loveliness.

 SimHQ.com - Motorsports Zone - Preview: 2004 British Grand Prix - Round 11 of 18
Coming down the start/finish straight you brake lightly for Copse (a fast right hander taken at about 150 mph) you then accelerate past the exit of the pit lane (on your right into the Becketts complex which is a complex consisting of right and left sweeps).
This is one of the best places to see just how fast a modern grand prix car goes as they are taken at fairly high speed.
As you can imagine this is the heaviest braking point on the track and the number of potential lines you can take in and out of the corner means that it is one of the best overtaking points of all on the circuits which the grand prix cars visit.
