HIGHLIGHTS: See the first F1 running at the revamped Zandvoort track from FP1
Niki Lauda was the last Formula 1 winner at Zandvoort, way back in 1985, but this weekend we will have a new victorious driver at the Dutch Grand Prix as F1 returns to a revamped version of the circuit for the first time in 36 years.
And the drivers got their first taste of the track – banked corners and all – in the opening practice session on Friday morning, though the session was cut short after a long red flag period when Sebastian Vettel stopped on track with a failure on his Aston Martin AMR21.
