The Belgian trip to Zandvoort brought mixed results for the drivers from the South. The first race was won overall by Swart after an exciting dice with Pilette, with class victories for Jonker and Oskamp. Race two brought a Belgian victory for young Ickx and his Lotus-Cortina, while the 1300 class was won by Nelleman from Denmark who had a fine battle with Smet and finished even closer than Swart and Pilette had done.
The last Touring car race was again won by the mighty Mustang of Ickx where Koster took the 2000 cc victory.
