The Spa Classic 2015 was held 22-24 May at Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium. The legendary circuit vibrated throughout the weekend at the old cars competing on the famed 4.352 mile, 20-turn track. The 5th edition of Spa-Classic established a new record attendance of 20,000 spectators, in addition to the 1,500 historic cars (club and competition) that were featured.
Senior Photographer Julien Mahiels documented the 2015 Spa Classic. In addition to his comprehensive race gallery, we offer the following selection of images from Julien that offer a ‘Behind the Scenes’ look at the historic races at Spa-Francorchamps. We split up Julien’s pictures into two galleries. The first gallery starting below features our favorite images, all displayed in the full-width view of Sports Car Digest, while the second gallery can be found on the last page of the article and gives a comprehensive view of all the photographs.To see more from Julien, visit julienmahiels.net.
