Information

Circuit Park Zandvoort (CPZ) ranks among the most historic and challenging road courses in all of Europe. Home of the Dutch Grand Prix from 1952 to 1985, Zandvoort features a testing blend of straightaways, tight, medium and high speed turns running over and around the sand dunes just a few hundred yards from the North Sea west of Amsterdam.

Designed by John Hugenholtz, the Zandvoort circuit opened in 1948. The 2.6 mile road course boasted a couple of signature corners, including the fast and undulating Schievlak and Tarzanbocht, a slightly-banked 180 degree turn at the end of the long pit straightaway.

Over the years, Zandvoort witnessed many classic races. In 1959 Jo Bonnier scored B.R.M’s first Formula One victory there. Eight years later the legendary Ford Cosworth DFV earned a famous win in its competition debut in the hands of Jimmy Clark, one of four Dutch Grand Prix wins for the Scotsman. The rain-swept ’71 Dutch Grand Prix featured a showdown between the two great rainmeisters of the day – Jacky Ickx and Pedro Rodriguez – that was ultimately resolved in the Belgian’s favor.

Following the 1985 Dutch Grand Prix the circuit closed owing to financial problems. It reopened four years later as Circuit Park Zandvoort and featured an abbreviated (1.6 mile) version of the original track for use in club racing. In 1995, however, the Dutch government gave CPZ the go-ahead to develop a new international level circuit. The resulting facility opened in 2001 featuring a modern pit complex as well as the old Tarzanbocht and the new Arie Luyendyk-bocht, which honors the two-time Indianapolis 500 winner who cut his racing teeth at Zandvoort. The contemporary Club Circuit Zandvoort boasts five different configurations including the Grand Prix, Chicane, Club, National and Oostelijk circuits ranging in length from 2.67 to .87 miles.
