Shot on the same day as the Mondeo below, but the weather took a turn for the worse. Still freezing cold, but with lots of wind and rain/snow… Oh well, the glamour of being a car photographer in the Netherlands!

Unfortunately races stopped back in 2008 and some of the roads that form the circuit will disappear in the near future.
