F1 Results Today: Dutch Grand Prix Practice Times

The red flags were out in force during the first two practice sessions at the Dutch Grand Prix, as Max Verstappen picked up where he left off after the summer break.

The flying Dutchman finished top of the timesheets in FP1, as he led from Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton in second and third respectively.

Aston Martin had an eventful first session, after Alonso took a trip through the gravel at Turn 11, while Lance Stroll was told to box over an issue that led the Canadian to complain of hearing 'a funny noise'.

Elsewhere, there was a change at Ferrari as Carlos Sainz stepped aside in FP1 to allow Robert Shwartzman to get behind the wheel of the SF23.

Nico Hulkenberg's first practice session came to an early end after he lost control of the rear of his car heading into the penultimate corner. The German skidded across the gravel and had a brush with the barrier.

And as FP2 rolled around, a curious incident that saw Daniel Ricciardo follow Oscar Piastri into the barrier at Turn 4 stole the limelight.

Lando Norris was the fastest man on track, with Verstappen and Alex Albon following the McLaren in P2 and P3 respectively.
