Lando Norris beats Max Verstappen to win the F1 Dutch Grand Prix

ZANDVOORT, Netherlands — Lando Norris just can not seem to get his starts right. For once, it didn’t stop him beating Max Verstappen.

Norris began on pole position but was slow off the road — a persistent problem for him — allowing Red Bull driver Verstappen to leap ahead.

Norris closed the gap and overtook Verstappen into the opening corner on the 18th lap of 72 and was then on track for his second profession win and the McLaren team’s third of the 12 months.

“After getting done into turn one and off the road, I used to be actually surprisingly calm,” Norris said. “Possibly because I’m a bit used to going backwards initially, I’m very prepared for those sorts of scenarios. I used to be very calm and just ‘OK, well what can I do now?’”

Verstappen was beaten at his home race for the primary time and saw his lead over Norris cut from 78 points to 70 with nine races remaining.

It was Norris’ fourth profession pole position, but the primary time he won after starting on pole. Verstappen pulled away but Norris reeled him back in as Verstappen began to complain his tires lacked grip. Norris finally took the lead back down the within the banked “Tarzan” turn. After that, Norris methodically stretched his lead to just about 23 seconds on the flag, constructing a niche in case of a safety-car restart which never got here.

After losing the lead initially, “I expected Max to begin pushing and get a little bit of a niche but he never did,” Norris said.

“So from that time I knew we were in with an excellent fight. But he appeared to just keep dropping off and my pace was recuperating. It’s a pleasant feeling contained in the automobile and particularly once I got past, I could just get comfortable.”

Norris had defended himself as “still up there” with the most effective starters in F1 on Saturday. After taking the win Sunday, he suggested there is perhaps an “underlying issue” causing wheelspin on the otherwise dominant McLaren automobile, on condition that teammate Oscar Piastri also lost a spot initially.

In every other phase of the race, it was clear that Norris and McLaren had the fastest automobile following McLaren’s latest upgrades. That points to what may very well be an increasingly competitive title fight with Verstappen within the last nine races of the season after the Dutch driver was far ahead of the remainder in 2022 and 2023.

Verstappen finished second and Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc was third after holding off Piastri.

Norris is the primary McLaren driver to win within the Netherlands since Niki Lauda in 1985, and Verstappen is with out a win in five races, his longest winless run since 2020.

“I feel it was quite clear that we’re not quick enough, so I attempted to be second today,” Verstappen said.

He suggested that “something has been occurring these days with the automobile” that Red Bull must work out to combat twin problems of an absence of pace and higher-than-expected tire wear.

Carlos Sainz Jr. was fifth for Ferrari and Verstappen’s Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez was sixth, ahead of the 2 Mercedes of George Russell and Lewis Hamilton.

In an indication of how badly Perez has struggled in recent races, sixth place was his best finish since fourth on the Miami Grand Prix in May.

In the primary race since Hamilton inherited the win on the Belgian Grand Prix after Russell was disqualified for an underweight automobile, the 2 Mercedes drivers again had contrasting days.

Russell briefly took third place off Piastri initially before regularly dropping back to seventh, while Hamilton began 14th after a grid penalty but rose six places.

Pierre Gasly was ninth for Alpine and Fernando Alonso tenth in an Aston Martin.

McLaren cut the gap to Red Bull within the constructors’ championship to 30 points because the team chases its first title since 1998.
