Both fatal crashes have prompted questions as to whether more can be done to improve safety at the circuit, particularly with rain expected to impact this weekend’s Belgian Grand Pꦯrix. 

Asked if more𒁃 changes are need𝐆ed to make Spa safer, Verstappen replied: “There are always things that can be done better.

"We are racing in Monaco, which is a lot more d🦂angerous than here, but we race therꦍe because it is deemed safe enough.

"Accidents happen, unfortunately. When you look back at the accident, it was extremely unfortunate the way it happen﷽ed.

"There is not a lꦕ൩ot you can do or change for it to be a lot safer. There are other tracks where you can have a crash and bounce back onto the track, there's low visibility and that can happen again.

"It was unlucky, in a way, that it happened at Spa twice, both cl♍ose to each other.”
