To give the very last Dutch Grand Prix some extra cachet, Formula 1 is introducing The Out Lap at Circuit Zandvoort. F1 ambassadors David Coulthard, Mika Hakkinen, and Naomi Schiff will also join this exclusive dinner, which does come with a hefty price tag. At first glance, it’s a particularly nice initiative, which was unveiled during the Belgian Grand Prix weekend: "Fans of motor racing and the very best in dining experiences can enjoy world-class cuisine from two Michelin-starred Dutch restaurants, Restaurant Aan de Poel and De Bokkedoorns, and take part in a once-in-a-lifetime culinary adventure at Circuit Zandvoort." Formula 1 announced in a press release.
The Out Lap is designed for just twelve guests. They take a seat in a moving restaurant that drives around
Circuit Zandvoort and stops at the most iconic locations on the track. At each stop, the F1 ambassadors talk about those spots, followed by a dish that reflects that exact location, Formula 1 writes.
An alternative to fries with mayo
You can now register for this event, which takes place on the Friday and Saturday of the race weekend in Zandvoort. Not in the mood for a hamburger or some fries, but want to dine in style? Then this is truly something for the F1 fan. You will, however, need a well-filled wallet. You can join if you pay 10,473.66 euros per person. That does include Moët Hennessy wines.
It’s no coincidence that Formula 1 is rolling out this concept for Zandvoort. The 2026 edition is the last Dutch Grand Prix on the current calendar, prompting the organizers to try various ways of giving the event a special send-off. The Out Lap is set to be one of the most exclusive parts of the weekend.
