Formula 1 race track Circuit Park Zandvoort - Drainage full speed ahead!
Located directly in the North Sea dunes, the Circuit Park Zandvoort race track looks back on an eventful motorsport history. The 4.3 km long race track in Zandvoort is known for its special track characteristics with many hills and sharp curves. A great challenge for the drainage of the track! Because the drainage system not only has to fit accurately into the curves, but also has to meet the high standards and regulations of the FIA (Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile). The HAURATON Project Management Team convinced the jury with their many years of expertise in racing and suitable drainage channels that can withstand the high loads from race cars and heavy duty vehicles.
There was very little time for the installation of the drainage channels. Within two months the complete pitlane and three of the curves (T1, T3 and T12) had to be equipped with drainage channels. It was necessary to ensure that the channels were laid with precision to prevent sharp edges on the surface. The choice fell on the RECYFIX HICAP drainage system and FASERFIX SUPER channels for cable routing in the pit lane area. In the curve area FASERFIX SUPER and RECYFIX PLUS drainage channel with slotted cover type F1 in load class D 400 were used.
Thanks to the close cooperation of all those involved in the project, installation was completed on time and accurately despite the tight schedule.
