That’s a clip of when Mansell’s Williams ran out of fuel on the last lap.

And you’ll hear two legends of F1. Murray Walker & James Hunt commentating.

And the joke, about the curse of Murray Walker.

As far as I know he did not run out of fuel but forgot to downshift while waving to the fans before the hairpin and stalled the engine :joy::joy::joy:

Nee. Volgend jaar is de laatste race in Zandvoort.

Dit jaar het Wilhelmus door Henk Poort.

I am very familiar with how the dutch national anthem Wilhelmus goes when I listen to it. I have listened to it many times during my time. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Het is een heel mooi volkslied.

right 2026 is the last race in Zandvoort

This is surely the worse kept secret in F1, it was said it would be Perez and Bottas when their application was approved

yes, it is about time that they announce both

It had been bouncing around the rumour mill for some time, just glad it’s been sorted and now a 12th team want to join the grid, it’s going to be bad enough with 22 cars next season.
