Nico Rosberg also regrets that Formula 1 was unable to travel to the Netherlands for the Grand Prix at Zandvoort this weekend. The single world champion is disappointed with the cancellation due to the coronavirus, because he expected a big Dutch party on the circuit located in the dunes.
"Unfortunately there is no DutchGP in Zandvoort today", Rosberg writes Sunday on his Twitter account. The former Formula 1 driver of among others Williams and Mercedes had taken into account a big orange sea. "It would have been a huge F1 party with all the fans going crazy and supporting Max!"
When will F1 come to the Netherlands?
According to Rosberg not only he had been looking forward to the return of the Dutch Grand Prix. "I think we were all looking forward to this weekend very much", says the now 34-year old German. He concludes in Dutch: "I hope to see you soon".
It remains to be seen if the weekend in Zandvoort can be caught up in 2020. The latest reports indicate that there is no place for the Netherlands on the renewed calendar. Circuit director Robert van Overdijk also said last week that FOM has not yet submitted a concrete request for a new date.
