Description | Some weeks before F.1 GP, raced on June 9th 1974, Driver Association (GPDA) asked to build a chicane (non shown on my map) at the end of the longest straight. It was a sort of right - left - right long ’S’, bounded by hay bales and it should slowed down a lot cars in the following short straights. In fact speed was quite the same. Official track length wasn’t changed. I don’t know if this chicane was used also on following years. | ||||
