Dutch大奖赛

The 2026 Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort provided a dramatic farewell to one of the calendar’s most atmospheric circuits. The race exploded into action immediately when, on the opening lap, local hero Max Verstappen lost control of his Red Bull on the damp final corner and slammed into the barriers, triggering an immediate Red Flag. The incident silenced the 'Orange Army' and required a lengthy suspension to clear the significant debris scattered across the track. Once the race resumed with a standing restart, Kimi Antonelli—who had been lurking close behind—made a brilliant move to overtake pole-sitter Lando Norris for the lead. The young Mercedes driver held the advantage for the majority of the race, appearing comfortable at the front. However, Norris, in his McLaren, showcased superior tire management and patience. As the race entered its final third, Norris steadily closed the gap, ultimately executing a clinical overtake on lap 45 to reclaim the lead. A late Virtual Safety Car, caused by Esteban Ocon coming to a halt on the track, compressed the field and opened a final pit window. While Mercedes attempted to manage their two-car strategy by inverting positions to put Antonelli in a stronger position, Norris remained untouchable at the front. The McLaren driver crossed the line to take his second consecutive victory, leaving the Mercedes duo of Antonelli and George Russell to complete the podium.
