Eastside 2A looks out over Turns 10 to 12, with the stand positioned on the outside of the DRS straight leading into Turn 11.

Turn 12 is visible beyond, extending your sightline further through the sequence. A big screen is in view, so you can follow the rest of the race lap while waiting for the next battle to unfold in front of you.
Groups of up to 10 can sit together in numbered seats, which helps for planning a day out with family or friends.
What to know about Silver II Eastside 2A at Circuit Park Zandvoort

The stand overlooks Turns 10 to 12, giving you a full view of how drivers approach and execute moves through this critical sequence.
