The championship ramifications of this race at Zandvoort might be momentous as this close title battle between the two McLarens continues. Piastri qualified on pole position ahead of Norris, who lost out at the start to Red Bull’s Max Verstappen.
Norris didn’t take long to regain his place and reel in Piastri. Safety car periods punctuated the action with Lewis Hamilton crashing his Ferrari and his team-mate Charles Leclerc hitting the barriers after contact with Mercedes’s Kimi Antonelli.
Norris eventually retired with smoke pouring out of his McLaren, which gave Verstappen second place at home.
