Max Verstappen was thrilled after claiming second place at the Dutch Grand Prix and extending his podium streak at Zandvoort to five from five.
The home hero inherited the position from Lando Norris after the McLaren driver suffered a shock power unit failure only a few laps from the chequered flag.
In doing so, he adds another second place to his record at the coastal circuit, having won the first three races there upon its return to the calendar in 2021.
Having started from third, the Dutchman dispatched of Norris in the opening corners, making use of starting on the red-walled soft Pirelli tyres.
His move was particularly impressive given a huge snap of oversteer as he passed on the outside of Turn 2 and into Turn 3.
Whilst he did get re-passed by the British driver a few laps later, he remained comfortably in third.
The result is the four-time F1 driver's champion's first podium since the Canadian Grand Prix.
"It wasn't easy," the Red Bull driver said, reflecting on the race. "Gave it everything at the start to move forward.
"Little moment in Turn 2. But after that, we just had to do our own race. Unfortunately, we didn't have the pace of the McLarens, then we got a bit lucky, of course, with one retiring.
"But in general, to be on the podium here is a great result. So to be in second is a really, really good achievement for us."
When asked to recount his first lap overtake on Norris, he replied: "Yeah, I tried to send it into Turn 3, but unfortunately, there was too much sand in Turn 2 from the middle of the track to the outside.
"I knew that we had the softer compound, so I tried to make it work on that first lap."
