A Kerosine Turbine engine, and a lot of overtaking, from the back row of the grid at Zandvoort.
Your go!
A Lotus Turbine also came close to winning the Indy 500!

An interesting, yet dangerous technology and the first F1 car with left foot braking.

No, it was on the calendar last year. This year we were at the Nürburgring.
Sorry for nitpicking :roll:

The modern F1 calendar regularly visits Hockenheim.

Zandvoort was what I was aiming at.

To be honest I'm not creative enough to think of a question, not to mention I'm studying for a calculus test as I type this. Go ahead and post another question beelsebob.

With all due respect, which race did the Lotus 56B ever win at Zandtwoort, not the Formula 1 Grand Prix anyway?

It took part in the 1971 GP at Zandvoort with Dave Walker driving, though retiring, best result was Emerson Fittipaldi's 2nd place at Hockenheim the same year, but that was an F5000 race.
