On August 15, 2006, for the first time in Dutch history, a [Formula One](//car-design.idoneos.com/333354) car drove on a highway. Red Bull Racing rider Robert Doornbos reached a speed of 326 kilometers per hour on channel A7 that was specially closed for this exhibition in “De Afsluitdijk”.

The tranquility of that morning was interrupted by the sound of a Formula. At that time, about the A7 that was closed for this event, the childhood dream of Formula 1 driver Robert Doornbos came true. Doornbos said, “This is fantastic! Naturally I often drove my passenger car by De Afsluitdijk, but never as fast as today in my Formula 1&#46;&#46;&#46;

The last Dutch Grand Prix was held in 1985, and since then that country has been waiting for the moment to recover such a spectacle. This exhibition was a toy to keep hope alive.
