The Formula 1 season resumes this weekend from Friday, August 29, as all 11 teams head to the sand dunes of the North sea coast for the 2025 Dutch Grand Prix live from Circuit Zandvoort on RTBF Auvio, streaming for free.
RTBF Auvio will be showing all the racing action from the weekend, including qualifying and of course, Sunday's race.
Before the summer break, we saw McLaren dominate with a 1-2 finish for the fourth time in a row as Lando Norris won the Hungarian Grand Prix (Oscar Piastri 2nd). The pair currently sit 1st and 2nd in the drivers' standings, Piastri on 284 points and his teammate, Norris, sitting on 275 points as we go into the second half of the 2025 season with all to play for.
In other news that will dominate the F1 weekend, 2026 new boys, Cadillac have announced the signings of Sergio Perez and Valtteri Bottas as their driving pair.
Come Sunday, Norris will be eager to grab his 2nd victory in Zandvoort (winning his first last year). However, the Brit will have his work cut out for him as since the circuit's revival onto the F1 calendar in 2021, Dutch national, Max Verstappen has dominated the fixture (3 wins and a 2nd place).
