The Dutch Grand Prix is a Formula One motor racing event held at Circuit Zandvoort, North Holland, Netherlands, from 1948 to 1985 and from 2021 onwards.
Preview:
The 2022 F1 Dutch GP will be the first time the F1 circus goes to the Netherlands with Max Verstappen as the reigning F1 world champion. Additionally, the Red Bull driver is already 98-points ahead in the championship and is right on course to win his second world title.
Ferrari and Mercedes are at a crossroads as they head to the Dutch GP. What happened at Spa last weekend was a complete and utter domination by Red Bull.
This weekend’s race and the relative performance of these two teams against Red Bull will determine what path Mercedes and Ferrari take for the rest of the season.
Max Verstappen is doing something special this year, and the way he’s doing it, he’s making it look like it’s far too easy. The race in Spa should not have been as easy as Verstappen made it look. Neither should the race in Hungary have been as straightforward as Verstappen made it out to be.
Away from the spotlight, McLaren suffered a rather humiliating defeat at the hands of Alpine at Spa. The car was not competitive on the straights, and as a result, while Alpine scored a P5 and P7 in the race, McLaren scored nothing.
The two teams are fighting a battle on and off the track. While McLaren might secure the off-track win by getting a hold of Oscar Piastri, Alpine is gaining the upper hand over McLaren on the track.
Our Predictions:
Charles Leclerc @4/1
This track should suit Leclerc and Ferraris set up, could he ruin Verstappen’s home GP party?
Podium Places:
Max Verstappen @1/3
We don’t see his weekend been a total fail and still see a high points finish.
Lewis Hamilton @13/8
Surely something has to give.
