F1 is back this weekend, with the Dutch Grand Prix marking the first of the season's final 10 rounds.

Last year's race witnessed heavy rain and a late red flag with just a handful of laps to go. Despite this, Max Verstappen maintained his lead after the restart, claiming a home win and matching Sebastian Vettel's record of nine consecutive victories.

As F1 returns to Circuit Zandvoort this weekend, the three-time world champion will be eager to regain his dominance and secure his eighth win of the season after going four races in a row without a victory.
