F1 returns to Zandvoort for round 15 of the 2025 season and the Dutch Grand Prix after a lengthy summer break.

The F1 grid will do battle for pole position in an attempt to topple the McLarens of Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris from the top of the timesheets.

Fernando Alonso and Aston Martin once again demonstrated impressive pace after their recent comeback, but not everything went smoothly for the Silverstone-based outfit, with Lance Stroll suffering a huge crash on Friday at Zandvoort.

The Canadian reported he was okay after the incident, and was certainly not the only driver to struggle during the opening day at the Dutch GP.

Lewis Hamilton spun on more than one occasion, while Max Verstappen, Yuki Tsunoda, Alex Albon and Kimi Antonelli all made a trip into the gravel on the first day of practice in the Netherlands.

Who will take home the silver (porcelain?) ware at Zandvoort?
