"After the long summer break the Formula 1 starts again and, as usual, the engines are rekindled at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, venue from 24 to 26 August of the GP Belgium, 13th round of the 2018 World Championship. Immersed in the Ardennes hills, it is unanimously considered the most complete track of the World Championship for the combination of fast corners, blind bends, slope changes and endless straights. Formula 1 is back for the fifty first time but over the years the track has changed a lot: from 2007 it measures 7.004 meters, which makes it the longest in the World Championship. Distinguished by 19 curves, however, only boasts 4 braking characterized by very high energy. The cooling of the braking systems is assured by the presence of fast corners like the Eau Rouge and the Blanchimont where the brakes are not involved in the least. An unknown factor is represented by the weather: last year in the race the air temperature touched 24 degrees while in 2014 it did not exceed 16 degrees. According to Brembo technicians, who have classified the 21 tracks of the World Championship, the Circuit de Spa-Franchorchamps falls into the category of circuits that are not very demanding for the brakes."
"From May 25 to 27 the World Superbike Championship is back on the circuit where it all began, Donington Park, for the sixth round of the season. It was on April 3, 1988 at Donington Park that the first race of the first World Superbike Championship was held. Located in the hills of Leicestershire, Donington Park is a circuit that alternates between two very different sections: the first segment is fast and smooth while the second is full of abrupt braking sections that make it seem like a stop-and-go track. Another factor to contend with are the low temperatures that block the brakes from reaching operating temperature. In fact, during both races in 2015 the temperature of the tarmac was just 21° C and the air temperature didn't go over 14°C, although it didn't rain. According to Brembo technicians, who work closely with 16 World Superbike riders, Donington Park is a highly demanding circuit for the brakes. On a scale of 1 to 5, it earned a 5 on the difficulty index, exactly the same score given to the tracks at Imola and Chang."
