A lap at the Zandvoort street circuit
We start our tour at the old
start/finish straight at the Van Lennepweg.
Original here was a right kink but now there's a roundabout!
We turn right into the
Nicolaas Beetslaan.
Trough the kink.
The cars didn't
drove at this part of the street but on the right hand side, where
now the sidewalk and the gardens are (see picture below).
At the end we turn right into
the Vondellaan.
Accelerate to the
intersection.
The intersection Van
Lennepweg/Vondellaan.
We turn left at the Van Lennepweg, where the start/finish is, but now in the
opposite direction!
This was the longest straight
of the track.
Here we have to brake for a
long right hander.
And another straight, a
little bit shorter than the previous one.
In fact this
street was not a part of the track. Original the street was a little
bit more on the left hand side and was called the Dr. John
Metzgerstraat.
We turn right into the Vondellaan. In front you see the building of the "Slotemaker
Anti Slip school".
At the begin of the Vondellaan we see on the left hand the entrance to the
parking of the permanent circuit!
Dead end ...
Here was the old part of the
Vondellaan, now a bungalow park.
This road inside the park
follows the lost part of the Vondellaan.
Here was a left corner where
the gravel path is now.
The exit of the bungalow park.
After the interruption of the
bungalow park we continue at the remaining part of the Vondellaan.
At the
intersection we turn left. Do you recognize this site? We have been
here before this lap. But than we came from the opposite direction!
The last corner ...
And than we're back at start/finish.
