In this Circuits of the past video we show you the Top 10 of urban myths and misconceptions in motorsport.

Number 10: Variante del Rettifilo 0:00

The name of the first corner at Monza is Variante del Rettifilo, which is Italian for Chicane of the Straight. Outside Italy the name is mostly shortened to Rettifilo. So actually they cal the chicane straight!

Number 9: Is Hugenholtz the designer of old Zandvoort? 0:50

Many sources claim John Hugenholtz to be the designer of the original Zandvoort circuit. But that is absolutely not true!

He was circuit director from Zandvoort from 1949 to 1974. But he was never involved in the design of the track.

He did, however, design other circuits like Jarama, Nivelles, Suzuka and the Motodrom section of Hockenheim. But not Zandvoort.

Number 8: Monza’s old Parabolica 1:35

During the Italian Grand Prix at Monza they several times show the old banking during the weekend. Reporters then often tell the the steep Southern banking is the old Parabolica Corner. But this is nonsense!

The Monza banking is an abandoned oval part of the old layout. It could be used as a full oval or in combination with the road circuit. There is absolutely nothing like an old version of the Parabolica Corner.

Number 7: The Nurembergring 2:22

The name of the famous Nürburgring is often mispronounced as Nurembergring. They probably think of the German city of Nuremberg. But the Nürburgring is named after the Nürburg Castle which is in the Eifel mountains.

Number 6: Jan de Wijker zijn veld 3:08

‘Jan de Wijker zijn veld’, Dutch for ‘Jan de Wijker his field’ was the name of a potato field on the ground where in 1948 the Zandvoort Circuit opened. The corner on this exact site was then named after this potato field.

However, because it’s a long name they wrote it among each other on the circuit maps. So people who didn’t speak Dutch tought it were two seperate names for two corners. So they named the right-hander ‘Zijn veld’ and the next left-hander ‘Jan de Wijker’.

Number 5: Who destroyed old Hockenheim? 4:07

Many people blame Bernie Ecclestone, the FIA and Hermann Tilke for the demolition of the old Hockenheimring. But actually non of them is responsible for that.

The initiative to modernize old Hockenheim came from the circuit bosses themself. They feared tough competition of the brand new Lausitzring in the east of Germany. So they came up with a plan to modernize the old fashioned Hockenheimring and asked architect Hermann Tilke to redesign the track.

Tilke actually want to modernize the excisting track with the long straights. He came up with a plan to widen the track and the run-off areas. But the circuit bosses wanted to abandon the long section through the woods and replace it by a more compact layout.

Number 4: Was Brooklands the first purpose built race track ever? 5:41

The Brooklands circuit in the United Kingdom opened in 1907 and is seen as the first ever purpose built race track in motorsport history. But is that actually true?

In Australia they also claim to have the first permanent race track in the world, the Aspendale Racecourse. It opened in 1891 as a horse race track. But in 1906 they opened an asphalt track for motorracing on yhe infield, one year before Brooklands opened.

Number 3: Does the Nürburgring Nordschleife really have more than 180 corners? 6:46

Many sources will tell you the iconic Nürburgring Nordschleife has more than 180 corners. But this is heavily exaggerated. The real number is only 104 corners, all full throttle kinks included.

Number 2: Was Hockenheim built as a test track for Mercedes? 7:14

There is a persistent story that Hockenheim was built in the 1930’s as a test track for Mercedes. But this is absolutely not true!

Hockenheim started in 1932 as a street ciruit at the initiative of Ernst Christ who came up with the idea to open a circuit in his home town Hockenheim.

He got the support of the mayor and the German Motorsport Association. They extended two public roads so a triangular trial could be created.

Number 1: Eau Rouge of Raidillon? 8:59

By far the most widespread and most persistent misunderstanding is the name of the famous steep corner at Spa-Francorchamps. Most people believe the name is Eau Rouge. But the correct name is Raidillon.

For more details about this name confusion I reccomend to read the article “Eau Rouge or Raidillon?”, which can be found on the website:

Retranscription des paroles de la vidéo: In this Circuit of the past video, we’ll show you the top 10 urban myths and misconceptions in motorsport. Number 10: Variante del Rettifilo. The name of the first corner at Monza is Variante del Rettifilo, which is Italian for Chicane of the Straight. Outside Italy the name is mostly shortened to Rettifilo. So actually they cal the chicane straight! One of them was the well known BBC commentator Murray Walker. In his typical style he yelled: “And there they go, into the Rettifilo!”. « If I am very much mistaken, I am very much mistaken » should Murray Walker have said. Once again, because he was wrong! Number 9: Is Hugenholtz the designer of old Zandvoort? Many sources claim John Hugenholtz to be the designer of the original Zandvoort circuit. But that is absolutely not true! He was circuit director from Zandvoort from 1949 to 1974. But he was never actually involved in the design of the track. He did, however, design other circuits like Jarama, Nivelles, Suzuka and the Motodrom section of Hockenheim. But not Zandvoort. On his retirement as director of the Zandvoort circuit, a corner was named after him. Number 8: Monza’s old Parabolica During the Italian Grand Prix at Monza they several times show the old banking during the weekend. Reporters then often tell the the steep Southern banking is the old Parabolica Corner. But this is nonsense! The Monza banking is an abandoned oval part of the old layout. It could be used as a full oval or in combination with the road circuit. There is absolutely nothing like an old version of the Parabolica Corner. The Parabolica was built in 1955 to give the combined circuit the exact length of 10 kilomters. Because of its parabolic shape they named it Curva Parabolica, which is Italian for parabolic corner. Number 7: The Nurembergring? The name of the famous Nürburgring is often mispronounced as Nurembergring. They probably think of the German city of Nuremberg. But the Nürburgring is named after the Nürburg Castle which is in the Eifel mountains. The city of Nuremberg is 400 kilometers – or 250 Miles – southeast from the Nürburgring. It does have a short street circuit named Norisring however and we all know and love that one. Noris is the Latin name for Nuremberg which they choosed to prevent people to confuse it with the Nürburgring. Ah, so in vain… Number 6: Jan de Wijker zijn veld ‘Jan de Wijker zijn veld’ is Dutch for ‘Jan de Wijker his field’ and it was the name of the potato field on the ground where the 1948 Zandvoort circuit opened. The corner on this exact site was then named after this potato field. However, because because it’s a long name they wrote it among each other on the circuit maps. So people who didn’t speak Dutch tought it were two seperate names for two corners. So they named this right-hander ‘Zijn veld’ and the next left-hander ‘Jan de Wijker’. We’ve already mentioned Murray Walker once, he’s coming back again. Because he was one of the prime culprits for doing it. At the end of 1979 ‘Jan de Wijker zijn veld’ was renamed into Rob Slotemaker Corner, after Dutch driver Rob Slotemaker lost his life here. Number 5: Who destroyed the old Hockenheim? Many people blame Bernie Ecclestone, the FIA and Hermann Tilke for the demolition of the old Hockenheimring. But actually non of them are responsible for that at all, even though they’ve been responsible for plenty. The initiative to modernize old Hockenheim came from the circuit bosses himself. They feared tough competition of the brand new Lausitzring in the east of Germany. So they came up with a plan to modernize the old-fashioned Hockenheimring and asked architect Hermann Tilke to redesign the track. Tilke actually want to modernize the excisting track with the long straights. He came up with a plan to widen the track and the run-off areas. But the circuit bosses wanted to abandon the long section through the woods and replace it by a more compact layout. But for that new compact layout they need to fell several trees, which caused protests from environmentalists. Finaly a compromis was made. The abandoned section would be demolished to plant new trees as a compensation. However the old track was not very popular by the drivers, but fans loved it and they didn’t find the new Hockenheimring quite so fun to begin with. A lot of fans are still very angry about this controversial reconstruction and blame the wrong people for it. So if you’ve got angry Tweets and emails, you know where to go. Number 4: Was Brooklands the first purpose built race track ever? The Brooklands circuit in the United Kingdom opened in 1907 and is seen as the first ever purpose built race track in motorsport history. But is that actually true? In Australia they also claim to have the first permanent race track in the world, the Aspendale Racecourse. Aspendale Racecourse opened in 1891 as a horse race track. In 1904 the horse track was used by the Royal Automobile Club of Victoria for an automobile demonstration. That was the beginning of motorsport on the location. A year later they would start to build an asphalt track on the infield of the horse racing track. This purpose-built circuit opened in 1906, one year before Brooklands opened and therefore Aspendale Racecourse is the first purpose-built racetrack ever. Number 3: Does the Nürburgring Nordschleife really have more than 180 corners? Many sources will tell you the iconic Nürburgring Nordschleife has more than 180 corners. But this is heavily exaggerated. It’s a fabulous track but the real number is actually 104 corners, all full throttle kinks included. Number 2: Was Hockenheim built as a test track for Mercedes? There is a persistent story that Hockenheim was built in the 1930’s as a test track for Mercedes. When there is a Grand Prix at Hockenheim reporters will tell you that. They take over from each other without checking any of the facts. Because this is absolutely not true! Hockenheim started in 1932 as a street ciruit. It was an initaitive from Ernst Christ, an assistant timekeeper and motorsport fan. In 1930 he came up with the idea to open a circuit in in his hometown of Hockenheim. For this idea he got the support of mayor Philipp Klein and the German Motorsport Association, who promised to organize races on the circuit. They extended two public roads so a triangular trial could be created. This street circuit opened in 1932. In 1938 a new section was built to cut off a section that ran through the village of Oftersheim. This new part was the section with the famous Ostkurve. Later in 1966 they also abandoned the section through the village of Hockenheim itself. They replaced it by the Motodrom and changed the driving direction from counter clockwise to clockwise. This was when Hockenheim became a permanent race track. However, the excisting street circuit from the 1930’s was used a few times by Mercedes for testing, but it was absolutely not built for them as a test track! Number 1: Eau Rouge or Raidillon? You could see this one coming. By far the most widespread and most persistent misunderstanding is the name of the famous steep corner at Spa-Francorchamps. Most people believe the name is Eau Rouge. But this is actually the name of the pre-1939 left hander leading to the l’Ancienne Douane Hairpin. Because the brook Eau Rouge flews underneath the left-hander they named it after the it. But in 1939 the Eau Rouge Corner and l’Ancienne Douane Hairpin were abandoned and replaced by a new artificial corner combination, to make the circuit faster. Because the new section was very steep they called it Raidillon. Raidillon comes from “raide”, which is the French word for steep. Raidillon actually means steep path of steep road. Here you see a model of the old and new circuit in the Spa-Francorchamps Circuit Museum. As you see, Eau Rouge is the name of the left-hander and Raidillon the name of the steep section. However, for the new Raidillon section they also used a tiny part of the old Eau Rouge Corner. Although not intended, Eau Rouge more or less remained as a name. So that contributed to the missconception. Most people now think Raidillon is the name of the left kink on top. Actually that’s part of of the Raidillon combination. Only about the left kink below you can argue this is the Eau Rouge, because it’s a remain of the old Eau Rouge corner. Because reporters, drivers and fans parrot each other and call the Raidillon Eau Rouge, this misunderstanding is extremely widespread. Some people even become angry when you tell them it’s Raidillon actually. You’ll see this i’m sure flowing through the comments below this video. For more details about this name confusion I recommend to read the article “Eau Rouge or Raidillon?”, which can be found on the website www.circuitsofthepast.com There you can also download a free book about seven abandoned racetracks that you can visit legally. For now though, thank you very much for watching and don’t forget to subscribe and click on that notification bell, so that you don’t miss the next video from another iconic circuit of the past. .
