The 1950 Belgian Grand Prix was the fifth race out of seven in the 1950 Formula One season. By now, the pace of the season was taking its toll, and only 14 cars made the trip to Spa-Francorchamps. Juan Manuel Fangio won his second race ahead of Luigi Fagioli and Louis Rosier. Giuseppe Farina finished fourth and took the fastest lap, therefore retaining the championship lead.
