Who won the F1 race today? Full results, classification from 2025 Dutch Grand Prix at Circuit Zandvoort

By | August 31, 2025

Formula One returned from a mid-season break on Sunday for the Dutch Grand Prix at the exciting Circuit Zandvoort near the north Netherlands coast.

Lando Norris took victory ahead of McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri at the Hungaroring last time out to close the gap at the top of the drivers’ standings to just nine points.

Piastri pipped Norris to pole position in qualifying this weekend, with reigning world champion Max Verstappen, who is desperately trying to make it a three-horse race for the championship, in P3.

Ferrari have enjoyed good success at this circuit in the past and were hoping for a good race themselves, especially after Lewis Hamilton spoke positively about the car after qualifying in seventh, one spot behind teammate Charles Leclerc.

Who won the F1 race today?

Oscar Piastri won the Dutch Grand Prix ahead of Max Verstappen and Isack Hadjar, the 20-year-old finishing on the podium for the first time for Racing Bulls.

Lando Norris retired on lap 66 of 72 with a mechanical failure, having been set to finish in second place, making this a potentially significant weekend in the race for the championship.

Piastri led from start to finish and set the fastest lap, but his serene progress at the head of the pack was in stark contrast to the dramatic events further back.

Verstappen got in front of Norris in the opening corners but was overtaken again a few laps later, and the McLarens were simply too strong for the reigning champion to reel in despite several safety-car interruptions.

Neither Ferrari finished, with Lewis Hamilton spinning into the barriers and Charles Leclerc taken out by Kimi Antonelli as the Mercedes tried to sneak through on the inside only to drift wide and cause a collision.

Norris was close enough to Piastri to make the final laps interesting before he reported smelling smoke in the cockpit, after which his car lost power. Verstappen had half a chance to overtake Piastri from the safety-car restart, but the advantage of his softer tyres was not enough to overcome the McLaren’s raw pace.

Hadjar’s P3 prompted wild celebrations in the pit lane and the stands. “This was always the target, when I was a kid,” he said. “Hopefully, there’s more to come.”
