1930 Belgian Grand Prix

The 1930 Belgian Grand Prix was held at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps on July 30. The race was won by factory driver Louis Chiron, after teammate Guy Bouriat led most of the race, but pulled over and stopped when the team ordered him to allow Chiron to win. Bouriat restarted and finished a full minute behind Chiron, much to the displeasure of the crowd, who felt that Bouriat was the star of the day.
