Spa Grand Prix President Étienne Davignon has locked the Belgian Grand Prix down for the next three years, Belgium's Lalibre.be reported on Tuesday.
Davignon confirmed the new deal between the Walloon Region, Spa Grand Prix and Formula 1 executives in a press conference. A deal that will allow Spa-Francorchamps' Belgian Grand Prix on the World championship calendar until 2015.
Organizers also announced that the 5,600 persons who purchased a ticket online via The Ticket Enterprise will be able to attend the race after all.
All 5,600 of them were left in the dark when the Dutch company went bust.
Event organizers promised that, upon proof of purchase, a ticket would be granted to them. But to be allowed in, they will also have to turn their rights to Spa Grand Prix, in order for the organizing committee to get the money back from The Ticket Enterprise.
