The Dutch Grand Prix is a race on the Formula One calendar. It was first held in 1951. It would continue to host world championship races until 1978, all at the Zandvoort circuit. The race was supposed to run in 1979, however as a consequence of the FISA-FOCA war the race was cancelled and FISA teams withdrew from the event. The FOCA teams would hastily schedule a race participated only by them, however the race was considered to be non-championship and thus did not count towards the standings; the race was withdrawn from the calendar in 1980 and would not reappear for many years.

Some 15 years later however, with the FIA looking for a short notice alternative to the Canadian Grand Prix in 1995 which had been suspended for a year pending short notice circuit modifications for safety reasons, the Netherlands would return to the Formula One world, this time at the Assen circuit. The race did well enough to earn it a spot on the calendar in the following two seasons, however following the 1997 event it was dropped again.

Another two decades would pass before the event's third stint on the calendar would appear, as the sport seeked to capitalise on the popularity of home hero Max Verstappen, the Zandvoort track would return to Formula One in 2018. It would run for a few years before being dropped again as a result of lukewarm interest in the race from both domestic and international audiences.
