Follow the only Free Practice session at this weekend's 2026 F1 Dutch Grand Prix, live from Zandvoort with RacingNews365 as Max Verstappen looks to end his final home race on top.
Lando Norris will be looking to build on his strong showing from the final round before the summer shutdown, with the McLaren driver having taken a first victory of his title defence campaign at the Hungaroring.
The current championship leader, Kimi Antonelli, will want to start the second half of the season well to help stave off the threat from those behind. The Mercedes driver leads Lewis Hamilton by 50 points with team-mate George Russell a further nine points back.
Isack Hadjar suffered a wrist injury over the break and will sit out this weekend — at least — with Liam Lawson handed a fresh opportunity to impress alongside Verstappen at Red Bull. Yuki Tsunoda will deputise for the New Zealander at Racing Bulls.
