The F1 paddock has had its summer break and come to the dunes by the Netherlands’ North Sea coast at Circuit Zandvoort this weekend, August 29-31, for the Dutch Grand Prix. All eyes will again be on McLaren team-mates Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris, who keep trading wins at the summit of the drivers’ standings.
The duo have finished top of the podium at the last four Grands Prix, with Norris picking up three wins including last time out in Hungary. He also won a year ago at Zandvoort. The Brit trails Australian Piastri by just nine points in the standings with 10 rounds to go and two races in Europe to go, where they’ve been dominant.
Max Verstappen hasn’t had the year many would have expected, but at his home race the 27-year-old four-time world champion will be desperate to put on a good showing in the Red Bull.
Lewis Hamilton was pretty downbeat after Hungary three weeks ago and the Ferrari driver will hope for a reset after the break. The eight-time world champion and Scuderia team-mate Charles Leclerc will seek some momentum ahead of next weekend’s Italian Grand Prix at Monza, the home of Ferrari.

How to watch Dutch Grand Prix from anywhere
Most F1 live streams are location-sensitive. So, you won’t be able to access your home service when travelling abroad. A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a small but powerful app that lets you select your preferred location and thus unblock any F1 live stream – including the free streams in Austria, Luxembourg and Belgium if you’re a resident there.
A VPN will allow you relocate your device back to your home country. NordVPN is our favorite VPN and you can make use of it to watch the F1 season while you’re away from home.
We test and review VPN services in the context of legal recreational uses. For example: 1. Accessing a service from another country (subject to the terms and conditions of that service). 2. Protecting your online security and strengthening your online privacy when abroad. We do not support or condone the illegal or malicious use of VPN services.
