The Belgian GP is scheduled to take place from August 21 to 23.

"Spa is one of my favourite tracks of the year. That's a bit of cliché but it's a favourite for all the drivers. It's really long, really challenging, there are some proper fast sections and some properly balls out corners. At Spa, more than anywhere, you feel that you're really driving an F1 car," said the Red Bull driver

"It's a totally unique feeling. There's great history there; the atmosphere is amazing. To be honest it's quite hard to put into words. I like the weather. It always feels like one of the freshest weekends of the year, if that doesn't sound strange, but it's cold at night, and the mist and everything adds to the atmosphere."

Kvyat said the circuit is great and the race will be special one.

"It's a great circuit and it brings out the true fans and that's quite special," he said.
