Lando Norris was delighted upon dominantly securing the win at the 2024 Dutch Grand Prix. Norris finally put a stop to his winless spell, successfully crossing the finish line at Zandvoort with a 22-second lead over Red Bull’s Max Verstappen.

Lando Norris showed tremendous pace around Zandvoort to deny Max Verstappen a fourth consecutive victory in his homeland. The 24-year-old was successful in proving to be clinical, a trait that has been vastly absent in him this season.

Yup, More like it.
Lando Norris wrote in an Instagram post

The Brit’s triumph sees him move within 70 points of Verstappen in the driver’s title race. While the scales are still in the Dutchman’s favor, it would be foolish to disregard Norris as a potent challenger to him this year.

Yesterday was always a good Indication of what we could do. I thought Max would be quicker than he was today. He dropped all the way back the Ferrari. The car felt good.
Lando Norris said after the Dutch GP

Verstappen talked of the RB20’s limitations against McLaren’s MCL38 upon failing to secure pole position on Saturday. Norris thereafter was surprised by the Dutchman’s pace, who struggled to match him during the race.

Red Bull has deemed the Dutch GP as a damage limitation race and appeared somewhat pleased with their result. The Milton-Keynes team will now hope to resolve their issues in order to bounce back at next week’s Italian GP weekend.
