Los of the entire supply mumbo jumbo you can be in the context of Formula 1 at Zandvoort, also you are questioned in the circuit itself. Luckily one of our readers kindly to that problem already the neck to rotate.

The demands placed on F1 circuits are made are not particularly tender. Uneven track section, courtyards with room for all the trucks and not to forget grandstand seats for spectators; everything must be in tip top shape before Bernie’s circus your circulation with a visit to come and worship.

Now Circuit Park Zandvoort a new owner, many Dutch Formula 1 enthusiast to ” the moon struck. Because the circuit in several respects out of date and far from suitable for the highest class in motorsport, was reader @hzw so kind to share his vision on a modern duincircuit to share with us.

Main points:

• The famous Hugenholtzbocht is a piece put back, probably to make room for a decent uitloopstrook. At least as important is the increased space on the infield. You don’t want to know how many trucks per race on a circuit here.
• The track is at various places a lot wider, made to provide space and to catch-up possibilities to create.
• The Hans Ernst Corner, now is a pretty tight right-left chicane, is substitute by a fairly quick linkerbocht. Also here, the necessary inhaalacties place should be able to find.
• Last but not least: the Slotemaker Flyover! The entire loop including the Scheivlak and the turns without the name being therefore the direction taken.

We find it all plausible sounding. Let’s just hope that Bernhard (or rather: Bernie) meeleest and within a year or so back roaring serene buzzing F1 engines can be heard, behind the dunes.
