F1 2025 Dutch Grand Prix weather forecast - Latest from Zandvoort as teams braced for chaotic conditions

The F1 action is finally back after the summer break with round 15 and the 2025 Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort.

Max Verstappen will enter his home race not as the favourite, after a miserable showing for Red Bull at the Hungarian GP last time out, where the champion finished P9.

Lewis Hamilton will also be hoping to banish his pre-summer demons at Zandvoort, with the 40-year-old leaving Hungary without a point and doubt over his Ferrari future.

Meanwhile, McLaren can expect business as usual in the dual for the title, which continues to swing between Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris. While it is the Aussie holding the points advantage heading into Zandvoort, his team-mate will apply maximum pressure this weekend.

However, can the weather keep a McLaren one-two at bay? Or will the papaya pair once again race off into the distance at the Dutch GP.
