Lando Norris comprehensively outgunned Max Verstappen in the Dutch Grand Prix – even after losing out at the start. Is this an outlier, or the start of a new trend? What does it mean for F1’s title fights? And how worried should Red Bull be?
The biggest winning margin of the 2024 Formula 1 season was achieved by Lando Norris and McLaren trouncing Max Verstappen and Red Bull at the Dutch Grand Prix. McLaren’s dominant performance raises questions about whether this was a one-time occurrence or the beginning of a new trend in the championship race. Red Bull should be concerned about McLaren’s surge and their own struggles, especially considering the implications for the title fights. McLaren’s victory was a statement win, showcasing their potential, but they need to address their weaknesses, such as the start phase, to maintain their competitive edge. While McLaren’s recent form suggests they could be a strong contender for the constructor’s championship, it’s essential not to draw definitive conclusions based on one race alone.
