The 2019 Spa-Francorchamps FIA Formula 2 round was to have been a pair of motor races that were due to be held on 31 August and 1 September 2019 at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps in Stavelot, Belgium as part of the FIA Formula 2 Championship. It was to be the ninth round of the 2019 FIA Formula 2 Championship and run in support of the 2019 Belgian Grand Prix.

Hubert and Correa were taken to the circuit's medical centre where Hubert died of his injuries.[1][2] Correa was stabilised and transferred to a nearby hospital.[3] The sprint race was cancelled as a mark of respect.[4]
