The Belgian Grand Prix goes underway today, and Max Verstappen will be looking to get his second consecutive championship for Red Bull. It is the end of the summer break and time for Max Verstappen to continue his dominance. Verstappen gathered back-to-back wins in France and Hungary and dominated before the break.

He is 80 points ahead of Charles Leclerc of Ferrari in the Drivers' Championship table. Only nine races remain in the current season, and Red Bull also leads Mercedes and Ferrari in the Constructors' Championship. We now head to the Belgian Grand Prix.

Lewis Hamilton placed second in France and Hungary and did well to reach the podium. He is in sixth place despite having a few great finishes this season. His new Mercedes teammate George Russel leads him by two places.


It will be interesting to see if Lewis Hamilton can overtake Ferrari with Mercedes to come second in the Constructors' Championship.

Where to Watch?
You can see the Belgian Grand Prix today (August 28) starting 5:55 am PT (8:55 am ET) on ESPN 2.

You need access to ESPNews, ESPN, ESPN 2, and ABC to see all the season's action. ESPN family would air all the races, including practice and qualifying. A single provider doesn't own exclusive rights, so there are many ways you can watch. Without cable, you can get ESPN and watch the Belgian Grand Prix (or any other Formula 1 race).
