Winner: Alberto Ascari (Italy)
2nd: Nino Farina (Italy)
3rd: Robert Manzon (France)
Pole: Alberto Ascari (Italy)
The opening race of the 1952 season was held in Spa-Francorchamps on 22 June.
Ascari had a perfect race weekend with this lights to flag victory, with Nino Farina finishing almost two minutes behind.
A rather uneventful race was livened up on lap 13 when Jean Behra, making his debut, collided with Italian Piero Taruffi.
This was Ascari's 4th career victory and gave him an early championship lead as he looked to defend his crown.
