Oscar Piastri won this Sunday his seventh victory in Formula 1 after imposing himself in the Netherlands Grand Prix. The Australian, who left from the Pole Position, demonstrated absolute control on the Zandvoort track, where the security car had to enter three times.
The McLaren pilot, leader of the Construction Championship, controlled the race from beginning to end and was stronger than the local and quadruple world champion idol, the Dutch Max Verstappen (Red Bull), which ended in second position.
With this victory, Piastri now leads the World Cup with 309 points, 34 more than his teammate and closest persecutor in the fight for the World Cup, the British Lando Norris, whose car was stopped nine laps from the end because of an oil leak.
Another of the surprises of the day was the young Frenchman Isack Hadjar (RB). With only 20 years, this 'Rookie' stayed with third place and celebrated its first podium in the highest category of motoring, demonstrating its evolution throughout the season.
While for McLaren it was a bittersweet day, the situation for Ferrari was critical. British Lewis Hamilton had to leave after hitting the wall, while Monegasco Charles Leclerc, after a clash with Kimi Antonelli (Mercedes), ran out of front spoiler and could not continue.
Formula 1 does not stop and its pilots will return to the action on September 7 at the Monza circuit for the Italy Grand Prix, the 16th valid season.
