It is still uncertain whether the Dutch Grand Prix will be able to take place in September as planned but the organization is confident that it will. In the meantime the construction works on the circuit are in full swing and the grandstands are almost finished.

The organization showed this in a video on the YouTube Channel of the Formula 1 Heineken Dutch Grand Prix. According to the caption, every day over two hundred people work on the 600,000 square metre site where the event will take place.

"From early in the morning until late at night they are building the biggest sporting event of the past decade in the Netherlands," the description explains. The video shows that there are 90,000 seats in the grandstands. Whether they can all be filled will become clear in the course of next week.
