Lando Norris secures his 2nd win of his F1 career at the Dutch Grand Prix in dominating fashion over Max Verstappen. However, his issue with race starts have persisted, but the McLaren is a rocket while the Red Bull is falling back in the pack. Are we seeing the title fight heat up?
Race Progression
Lando Norris was jumped by Max Verstappen off the line, but was able to recover for a dominant win at the Zandvoort Circuit leading Max Verstappen by over 22 seconds. Charles Leclerc secured another podium position while the Mercedes drivers struggled to earn significant points. Pierre Gasly was able to secure a points paying position for Alpine after a valiant effort.
F1 Championship Standings
McLaren is now within striking distance of Red Bull in the F1 Constructors Championship and could take lead within the next few races. If Lando Norris continues to win and the performance of the Red Bull continues to waver, Lando could have himself a title fight come Abu Dhabi. Sauber are still yet to score points and that may become more concerning as Audi want to create a championship caliber team on the foundation of the worst car.
