Gold - Tarzan in 1 highlighted; other sections in grey.

Sitting in Tarzan in 1 puts you at the closest point of the Tarzan-in grandstand to Turn 1 itself, the wide hairpin at the end of the main straight that Zandvoort fans know as the Tarzanbocht. From here you look directly into one of Formula 1's recognised overtaking zones, watching cars brake hard from full speed and jostle for position through the entry and apex of the corner.
The grandstand also carries a view of the start/finish straight, so you can follow the field as it accelerates toward you before the braking zone unfolds right in front of your seat. A big screen is visible from every seat in the stand, meaning you stay connected to the broader race picture even when the action is happening elsewhere on the circuit.
Be aware that the stand is uncovered, so you are exposed to the elements throughout the day. Tarzan in 1 is the section of the three-part grandstand positioned nearest to the corner, which gives it the most immediate sightline of the hairpin entry compared to Tarzan in 2 and Tarzan in 3.
