Nivelles-Baulers was a 2.314 miles race track near Brussels, Belgium locally referred to as Nivelles in French and Nijvel in Dutch. Built in 1971, the circuit hosted two rounds of the Formula One Belgian Grand Prix in 1972 and 1974 during the time when the race was supposed to alternate between Walloon and Flemish circuits. Designed to be a safe alternative to Spa, Nivelles was perhaps too safe.
