Usual 2000-odd pics to go through (and off to the UK on Thursday) but here's the parade to be going on with - thanks to K&P and Swen for the lift.

Those cars on the 'normal' road look very impressive. Thanks Termie :)

I did the drivers parade at Spa once many years ago. That was 2002 I think when Shorty entered the slime green Cerbera. You can do some impressive shots when you pan against the house fronts. I remember having done some great photos that day. I'll see whether I can find them somewhere.
I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.

I've got some video footage of the parade (forgot the monopod so might be a bit wibbly wobbly!).  I'll try to get it edited and publish it somewhere. 

It's a fantastic sight!

Liked the pics, but a bit dark.  I have this problem too - the shiny bits of the cars must fool the camera

Haven't found the pictures I was looking for yet but look what I stumbled across. Do you know that gentlemen on the left ?

Hi,
  Somebody mentioned at the weekend, that it would have been good to have a map to the circuit.

So, here it is. Useful for next time!
