According to the Spa website and the last draft calendar I got, it says RMU (if they do Historics) on May 18 and Masters on June 15.

But it is Spa and they tend to ....

It's not the full Masters 'package' in June - just Top Hat saloons, Cloth Cap sportscars, 'Oldies but Goodies' and 'Stars of the 70's'.....but the Masters calendar is marked that they will be combined with other races.

I read that to mean the combined Top Hat series on one grid. Same as every visit.
