Lando Norris returned from the F1 summer break with a bang, topping the first practice session ahead of this weekend's Dutch Grand Prix.
The Briton set a 1m 10.278 to lead the timesheets at Zandvoort, finishing almost three-tenths clear of his McLaren teammate, Oscar Piastri.
Aston Martin locked out third and fourth, with Lance Stroll ahead of Fernando Alonso, though both were over half a second adrift of Norris.
Williams' Alex Albon and home hero Max Verstappen rounded out the top six, while Ferrari's Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton ended the session down in 15th and 16th, respectively.
Kimi Antonelli missed the majority of the season, due to beaching his Mercedes in the opening 15 minutes which triggered a red flag.
