About Zandvoort
Circuit Zandvoort is a motorsport race track located in the dunes north of Zandvoort, Netherlands, near the North Sea coast line. It returned to the Formula One calendar in 2021 after a 36-year absence, largely driven by the popularity of Dutch driver Max Verstappen. The track was originally designed by John Hugenholtz.
Zandvoort is an "old-school" track with gravel traps and barriers close to the asphalt, punishing errors instantly. The 2020 renovation introduced two unique banked corners, Turn 3 (Hugenholtzbocht) and the final Turn 14 (Arie Luyendykbocht), allowing cars to carry much higher speeds onto the straights and opening up different racing lines.
The circuit flows through the sand dunes, creating elevation changes and blind crests. It is narrow and twisty, often described as a "rollercoaster." The atmosphere during the Dutch Grand Prix is comparable to a football stadium, with plumes of orange smoke and non-stop music creating a party environment unlike any other.
