4PROS test day

Spa-Francorchamps

Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, Belgium · 7.004 km · 19 corners

The legend in the Ardennes

Eau Rouge, Raidillon, Blanchimont.

The Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps lies in the Belgian Ardennes between Francorchamps and Stavelot. Racing has taken place here since 1921, and every year the Spa 24 Hours is added to that – one of the most important GT races in the world.

At 7.004 kilometres, Spa is one of the longest circuits on the international calendar. Eau Rouge and Raidillon, the long Kemmel straight, Pouhon and Blanchimont demand confidence in the car and a setup that stays stable at high speed. Then there is the Ardennes weather, which can change within a single lap. Whoever tests here prepares for everything.

Frequently asked questions

All about testing at Spa-Francorchamps

When does the test at Spa take place?

In April 2027. The exact date is listed above under the dates.

How does the weather at Spa affect the test?

The Ardennes weather is unpredictable – it can be raining at one end of the circuit and dry at the other. Plan for wet tyres. That is exactly what makes a test at Spa valuable: you learn how your car reacts to changing conditions.

Which cars are eligible?

Eligible are GT cars of the GT2, GT3, GT4 and GTE classes, one-make cups such as Porsche Cup, Ferrari Challenge and Lamborghini Super Trofeo, as well as LMP2, LMP3 and LMP4 (JS P4). LMH, LMDh, JS 2R, Group C and GT1 on request. Formula cars and other open wheelers are not admitted at 4PROS.

What is included in the test day?

At least seven hours of open pitlane, professional timing with sector times, photos of your test, tyre service by MTS on site and a dedicated coordinator as your contact. A timing data stream and catering for drivers and mechanics can be booked as extras.

Which noise limit applies?

The noise limit is set by the circuit. At most 4PROS tests, cars run up to 105 dB or FIA-compliant. We give you the exact figure for your date with the quote.

How do I book a test day?

Test days can only be booked on request. Choose your date above and send your enquiry directly from the date page, or arrange a short consultation. We will get back to you with availability and a quote for your team.
