Last Sunday at the Belgian Grand Prix we saw Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel overtake the Mercedes of Lewis Hamilton on the first lap of the race. He slipstreamed his title rival perfectly going down from La Source and through Au Rouge and up Raidillion. Vettel overtook Hamilton on Kemmel straight for the lead.

I saw the highlights footage today again, I was having a dejavu and thought: "I've seen this before!". In 2013 I was at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps myself and shot this footage with a DLSR. In this shot you will hear the helicopter coming that's filming the race, right after that you see Lewis Hamilton in the Mercedes with Sebastian Vettel right behind him in the Red Bull slip-streaming and passing Hamilton just as he did yesterday. The camera also picked up the V8 sound quite well. I still get goosebumps when I listen to the sound as all car passed by and the roaring of the engines echo in the Ardennes.

Did you post other great footage from yesterday or earlier races? Please send us the link from Youtube to [email protected], so we can post them on F1-Fansite.com.
