Nivelles-Baulers then and now


Nivelles-Baulers in better times (1972).

The pits and start/finish above in 1998 below in 2003.

Downhill to the "Big Loop" above in 1998 below in 2004.

The Big Loop above in 1998 below in 2004.



Above turn four in 1998. In 2004 this corner was gone (below)!



Also the chicane has been gone!


This picture was made from the site of the chicane. On the background you see the last remains
of the track behind a fence.

Once upon a time Emmerson Fittipaldi was driving here to the chequered flag. In 1998 it was me at the same spot with my VW Scirocco (above). Now there's a roundabout (below)!


This is the last piece of Nivelles ...


The aerial view above shows the current situation. Only the fast chicane and the hairpin are still there,
and the last one is covered with tons of earth! Do you see the roundabout? That's where the previous
picture has been taken.
