About the circuit
View circuit pageThe Zandvoort circuit was laid out among the dunes near the town of Zandvoort, about twenty kilometers west of Amsterdam in the Netherlands. It was inaugurated on August 7, 1948, before hosting the Zandvoort Grand Prix the following year, which would become the 'Dutch Grand Prix'. Originally 4,193 m long, the Zandvoort circuit has undergone various safety improvements and track modifications. The most famous corner of the circuit is the Tarzanbocht ('Tarzan corner'), which provides excellent overtaking opportunities. The presumed origin of its name comes from a colorful local character nicknamed 'Tarzan', owner of a vegetable garden in the dunes who agreed to give it up if the circuit designers named the nearby corner after him. The Zandvoort circuit was included in the Formula 1 World Championship in 1952 and was definitively abandoned in 1985 after thirty Grand Prix. The organizer withdrew from business, leaving the circuit in disrepair. A circuit preservation plan was implemented two years later and a new 2,600 m layout was created in summer 1989 for club races. In 1995, the Zandvoort circuit obtained Dutch government support to establish the foundations of an international Grand Prix circuit. From this support, a new layout was born, with new pits and a grandstand along the straight. The track length was then definitively set at 4,300 m. The Zandvoort circuit hosts DTM, Formula 3 Masters, and trackdays throughout the year... (Wikipedia)
