Bottom post of the previous page:

That is the strangest graphic of the changes to Zandvoort post 85 I've ever seen. AFAIK the only changes where T7 to T13 with T1 to exit T6 being the same as the old layout.

From start till after the Scheivlak corner the old layout is pretty much the same. The track is short 4300m.

the banging at Zandvoort has been finalised

I assume some tech-pro barriers ('safer barriers') will be added to those concrete blocks.

The 'banging' at Zandvoort makes me look forward to seeing how Grosjean will entertain us on that bend. Especially with no safer barrier. Maybe HAAS should fit a parachute to the back of his car. There looks to be a gap in the banging barrier. Perhaps Grosjean will go through that, 'HAAS' first :evil: :omg:

Isn't turn 2 at Hungaroring of a similar tightness? We see plenty of racing through there

Is the lead-in turn at Zandy conducive for them to be close though?
