Formula 1 qualifying takes centre stage at the 2024 Dutch Grand Prix today (Saturday, August 24), with drivers battling for grid positions for Sunday's showdown at Circuit Zandvoort.

Following a four-race winless streak, Max Verstappen will look to win his eighth race of the season in front of his home crowd and extend his championship lead which he currently holds by 78 points over Lando Norris.

However, it won't be an easy task for the Dutchman, as McLaren and Mercedes are now more threatening than ever after dominating the scene in previous rounds.

The two teams also displayed a strong pace yesterday, with Lando Norris and George Russell topping the timesheets in FP1 and FP2 respectively.

Now, drivers and teams will have one final practice run in the morning to fine-tune their cars before the all-important qualifying session later in the afternoon.
