Are you a nostalgic set motorsport fan and circuit lover? Then this is the channel for you! Here you find videos of the motor racing circuits of the past, and sometimes of the present too. I upload new videos on Friday.
My name is Herman Liesemeijer, I live in the Netherlands in a town called Heerenveen. My fascination for lost race tracks started after a visit to the abandoned circuit of Nivelles-Baulers in Belgium in 1998. In 2003 I founded the MSM Group "Circuits of the past", which became a real website in 2008. This website is dedicated to the lost racing circuits. Through the years I visited many old race tracks.
Since 2014 I'm focusing on making videos. In 2018 I bought a drone to make spectacular aerial footage and I started with live vlogs.
I hope you enjoy my videos and subscribe to my channel.

Circuits of the past
🏁 It's race day at Spa-Francorchamps!
Before today's Belgian Grand Prix begins, take a moment to discover the original Spa-Francorchamps.
This isn't just a drive around one of the greatest circuits in motorsport history. You'll explore forgotten sections, abandoned corners and the legendary Masta Kink as the old 14-kilometre layout comes back to life.
One warning, though... our jokes about some very slow Sunday drivers on the public road have sparked surprisingly heated debates in the comments. 😄 Watch the lap and decide for yourself.

🚁 Members Exclusive Video – Almost Lost My Drone
I’ve just released a Members Only video that takes you behind the scenes of a high-risk drone flight over the abandoned Opel-Rennbahn in Germany — Opel’s historic test track from the 1920s–1930s.
This is raw, unfiltered footage with my live commentary, including a tense moment where the drone nearly crashes into a tree while flying on auto-pilot. For a few seconds, I genuinely thought it was gone.
If you love:
• Historic and abandoned race circuits
• Raw POV drone flights
• Motorsport history told from the field
• Real moments where things almost go wrong
…then this video is for you.
🎟️ Channel members get access to this video and many more exclusive documentaries, raw flights, and behind-the-scenes content that never appears on the public channel.
