But now there is more lawsuit to interrupt the race due to the environment. Johan Vollenbroek and its organization Mobilization for the Environment (MOB) will perform tomorrow, August 26.8.2021, XNUMX in Haarlem against race v Zandvoort from 3 to 5 September.
"I estimate the possibilities at 50 percent," so Vollenbroek, who believes the event is broadcasting much more nitrogenas the organization wants to believe. According to him, it will Formula 1 racing weekend released ten times more nitrogenas per the permit. The court has ruled in previous proceedings that the race for GP of the Netherlands an event that is “in the great public interest of top sport and promotes the regional economy and tourism.“She was threatened in this case animal protection in the natural environment around Zandvoort. In words Vollenbroek it is very different now. “If the nitrogen norms are exceeded, the judge cannot dispute this. An overriding reason of great public importance must first be submitted to the European Commission, which has not happened. We are proving that nitrogen emissions are increasing, while the organization claims this is not the case. This will be a difficult decision for the court."
Vollenbroek the organization has already gotten more court proceedings regarding nitrogen policy, which made it necessary to stop different construction projects, as well expansion of farms. "The racetrack is close to a national park, a nature reserve. If you want to keep him here and not in Assen, you know you’re taking a risk. Now that Formula One has explicitly chosen Zandvoort, it will be their own fault if the race has to be canceled just before the start.”Besides nitrogen policies pa Vollenbroek bothers something else. “Coronavirus measures may not allow countless events to take place, but they can. These are double standards. The entire cultural sector has been cut off and Formula 1 may be implemented. That seems incomprehensible to me."
