    Threre was a race planned here for today.

    The circuit of Zandvoort. Today should have been the first Formula One race again after 35 years of absence.



    Cheers,

    At least the Covid-virus did something good and cancelled this ridiculous initiative which causes enormous pollution and has a ruinous impact on the whole environment, not to mention the enormous traffic-jam that would have happened.

    That might be all good and well considering the location but it's a sweeping statement at best!
    If the vast majority of users stopped driving oversize and overweight 'Trucks' and so-called 'Sport Utility Vehicles' that would have a greater effect than cancelling any EffWun event.
    Who really needs to drive a Chevrolet Suburban or a Dodge Ram for example?
    Let's not overlook the fact that most (if not all) 'Manufacturers' involved in EffWun bang on about the 'Green' standards they are developing via EffWun and Eff E while producing and heavily marketing oversize and overweight environmentally unfriendly vehicles sold to the unwashed public the World over.
    Certain people have a genuine need for the extra size and capacity of theses vehicles, but not the solo Millennial wheel operative or Soccer Mum who drives her barge to the Supermarket.
