Nestled amongst the coastal dunes in the province of North Holland, Circuit Zandvoort is a traditional style racetrack. With sections of the track enhanced to create exhilarating racing moments it is set to be a memorable track thanks to it's unique banking on the final corner.

F1 2020 will be the first time Zandvoort has featured in an official F1 game.
