After taking victory again last time out, Max Verstappen goes in search of another at the 2023 Belgian Grand Prix this weekend.
If he's successful in that quest, the Red Bull star will become just the second driver in Formula One history to win eight straight races after Sebastian Vettel's run of nine back in 2013.
But success isn't guaranteed around Spa, one of the greatest race tracks in motorsport. With a Sprint race also thrown into this weekend, the chasing pack will be desperate to cause an upset.
For all the details on how to watch the F1 action in India this weekend, The Sporting News has you covered.
