DUTCH GRAND PRIX 2025

What an exciting race! I don’t want this to be the second to last year of the Dutch Grand Prix because I love this one. From the first lap when Max almost slid on the grass getting past Lando to the last lap when Max got his second place, the whole race was packed with exciting race moments. Crazy that Lando’s mechanical failure cost him second place and that poor Kimi hit Charles and that Hamilton crashed on his own and that Isack Hadjar got third. I really wanted Max to storm at the end with the rain coming in to get the lead, but he was wise not to do anything risky. Great classic drama at this race and a great outcome! 

Practices 

• Kimi Antonelli goes off and beaches in the gravel and red flags 

• Lewis and Yuki also have spins 

• Max beaches into the gravel after the session while doing a practice start which is a very unusual mistake from him 

• Practice 2, Lance Stroll red flags for a big crash from locking up, it’s the same corner as where Daniel Ricciardo crashed and broke his hand a few years ago 

• Hamilton spins

• Albon has a crash and is beached and red flag

• Isack Hadjar has to stop the car for mechanical issues 

• Oscar went to pull into wrong area of his pit box apparently and then cut off George Russell in the pit lane 

Qualifying 

• Lance Stroll crashes AGAIN and ruins his qualifying on the first fast lap in Q1

• Kimi and Yuki out in Q2

• Oscar on pole! Then Lando and Max

Race

• Max passes Lando for second on lap 1 and nearly slides off the track in the process but makes it! 

• Awww Lando gets back around Max for second 

• Rain starting 

• Hamilton goes into the wall after his pit stop and crashes out! 

• Lando has a long pit stop 

• Lawson and Sainz collide on the safety car restart after Hamilton’s crash and Sainz calls Lawson so stupid but both keep going somehow 

• Bortoleto being investigated for driving unsafely I think 

• Virtual safety car for cleaning up debris on the track 

• Sainz gets 10 second time penalty for causing a collision

• Charles and George fighting is INSANE and Charles gets ahead but man is Charles in a rage and they’re investigating it after the race

• George told to switch position with Kimi because George has damage and they are trying to catch Charles ahead 

• OH NOOOO KIMI HIT CHARLES and it was Kimi’s fault and Charles is out now and Kimi has a ten second time penalty and now there’s a second safety car 

• Charles is sitting out on a Dutch sand dune like he’s been completely forgotten 

• And NOW Kimi is being investigated for speeding in the pit lane and gets a 5 second penalty in addition to the ten seconds 

• MECHANICAL FAILURE FOR LANDO IN SECOND so now it’s Oscar leading, Max and ISACK HADJAR in third

• Oscar wins, Maxy in second and Isack Hadjar in third, thats CRAZY
