About the Circuit
Circuit Zandvoort is a compact, technical circuit measuring 4.259 km per lap and featuring 14 corners. Its relatively short lap length and dense corner count place a premium on mechanical grip, aerodynamic balance, and precise car setup, making it a demanding venue for both drivers and engineers.
The Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort holds a significant place in Formula 1 history, having hosted the sport at various points across several decades before returning to the modern calendar. The circuit’s character rewards cars that can sustain consistent performance through a high density of direction changes across a short distance, and the lap record of 1:11.097, set in 2024, reflects the pace that contemporary machinery can extract from the layout.
