Eurocircuit, tor wyścigowy (Holandia)
Eurocircuit is a motorsport racing track in Valkenswaard, Netherlands, built specifically for rallycross events. The 1,033-meter (3,389-foot) course combines 60 percent tarmac with 40 percent gravel to create a challenging surface where drivers navigate both asphalt turns and dirt sections.
The track was established in 1971 as the world's first circuit designed specifically for rallycross racing. For many years, it hosted the Dutch round of the FIA European Championship, attracting top drivers and producing intense competition.
The track draws a dedicated following of rallycross enthusiasts who gather during race weekends to watch drivers battle on the mixed surface. The energetic vibe during events reflects how the place has become central to local racing culture and fan traditions.
The track is accessible to visitors with multiple viewing areas positioned around the circuit for watching races. Parking and refreshment facilities are available near the grounds.
A notable feature is the Joker lap added in 2011, which allows drivers to take an alternative route through the course to gain a tactical advantage. This rule makes each race unpredictable, as drivers must decide strategically when to use this shortcut during competition.
