What is Zandvoort like?

Zandvoort is a historic racetrack located in the Netherlands, known for its challenging layout and passionate Dutch fans. It's a relatively short and twisty circuit with elevation changes and famous banked corners, making it tricky for drivers and often leading to close racing, as seen with the tiny margin between Russell and Norris.
