F1 Dutch GP qualifying - Start time, how to watch & more

F1 Mercedes Red Bull Ferrari Sky Sports Lando Norris Oscar Piastri Russell (Person) McLaren Dutch GP

F1 returned from its summer break to wet and windy conditions at Zandvoort, with first practice led by Lando Norris in a wet-to-dry session. Despite the gales keeping the seaside Dutch circuit cool, Russell headed the FP2 times from the other McLaren of Oscar Piastri.

The second practice session was halted by a red flag for Nico Hulkenberg’s crash at Tarzan, the Haas driver losing control of his car under braking as the rear axle locked up.

Beyond a few mild off-track excursions, the rest of the day passed relatively calmly, with Russell and Piastri followed by eventual Belgian GP victor Lewis Hamilton in third on the timesheet.

With Norris in fourth, Red Bull’s Max Verstappen was unable to match the outright pace in fifth but was clear of Aston Martin’s Fernando Alonso in sixth.

Carlos Sainz missed the majority of FP2 due to a gearbox issue with his Ferrari.

What time does qualifying start for the F1 Dutch Grand Prix?

Qualifying for the Dutch GP starts at 3:00pm local time (2:00pm BST), using the regular Q1, Q2 and Q3 knockout session format.
