F1 drivers have voiced concerns over poor weather conditions at Spa-Francorchamps in light of the recent death of Dilano van ‘t Hoff earlier this month

Formula 1 drivers have discussed the cancellation of the Belgian Grand Prix if the rain causes poor visibility. Mercedes driver George Russell thinks the Belgian Grand Prix should be called off if heavy rain makes racing too dangerous.

It comes just weeks after heavy rain and poor visibility caused a crash on the track, which killed 18-year-old Dilano van ‘t Hoff. The weather forecast for the Belgian Grand Prix has said heavy rain is due at the Spa-Francorchamps, which could play a major role this weekend.
