Max Verstappen has added a new victory in the F1 Dutch GP and has equaled Sebastian Vettel’s record of nine consecutive wins. The Dutchman managed to manage his advantage from pole position in very difficult race conditions, with intermittent rain and two red flag interruptions to score their eleventh home win, spurred on by the orange fans.
Verstappen was on the podium accompanied by Fernando Alonso, who gave a recital and was chosen driver of the day, also finishing with the fastest lap in the race. The Asturian is thus reunited with the best version of him. The improvements to the Aston Martin after the holidays have worked and Alonso has added his seventh podium with the Silverstone team. Carlos Sainz, fifth, has minimized damage with a Ferrari that has had a difficult weekend on a track with high downforce, while his teammate Leclerc has retired.
