At what time is the departure given? 3 p.m. For 71 laps.Watch the US Open live on EurosportDutch Grand Prix”Super Max!” : How Verstappen’s song went from anonymity to success07/27/2022 At 11:22AMThe qualifying filmDoes Max Verstappen get off to a good start this year?He’s the best, and his stats scares them. It’s simple, he is the only driver on the field to have not lost any position this year between his position on the grid and the end of the first lap! At worst, he keeps his place, which is already good especially when you is on pole!Stats: Max Verstappen’s (Red Bull) first laps after 14 Grands Prix in 2022Credit: EurosportIs Max Verstappen the favorite for victory?Yes. He did a lot of work with his team to fine-tune the settings of his RB18, which he described as “complete” at the end of his day. What his opponents did not deny. At Ferrari, we noted the Dutchman’s “high race pace” during his simulation of the first stint in free practice 3. Is Ferrari leaving beaten in advance? No, but a certain vagueness surrounds the behavior of the F1 75 Despite his relative failure in Q3, Charles Leclerc, qualified 2nd at 0″021, found his nervous “rossa”, too understeered on the Zandvoort serpentine. It is to be hoped that this defect disappears with a full tank of gas On the other hand, he will be able to count on the traction qualities of his single-seater on this circuit. indicated that the objective was to put pressure on Max Verstappen.With a consensus on a stop, there are not 36 solutions: the French manager is thinking of extending Carlos Sainz’s stint as much as possible to hinder the local driver.Pierre Can Gasly and Esteban Ocon finish in the points? That’s their goal if because Pierre Gasly starts 11th and Esteban Ocon 12th. The AlphaTauri driver, 8th in Belgium after an air gap of 5 races, seems the most able to get there easily because a sudden understeer in turn 3 deprived him of a passage in Q3. On the other hand, the evil is deeper on the Alpine n°31. “This weekend, we can’t find the grip on the rear axle, on all the tractions”, summarized its pilot, on Canal +. “Alpine must take Gasly in 2023 to come out a winner in this story” Who will be the X factor ?Lewis Hamilton. You will have to count on him! “My final lap was good until the last sector, where I saw the car (of Pérez) facing me, in the opposite direction. I eased off. Otherwise, this lap could have earned me at least the 3rd place.” Clearly, the W13 n°44 is very close to the Red Bull n°1 and the Ferraris. And the circuit resembles that of the Hungaroring, where Mercedes shone with a pole for George Russell and a double podium. How many stop(s) in the race? The teams will try to observe only one stop like last year , because overtaking is difficult in Zandvoort. The only factor that can change the situation is an intervention by the safety car. The FIA has added the last banked corner to the DRS zone of the pit straight, but it is not certain that this will change much. What is special about the track? Its bitumen. “There are two very different tarmacs at Zandvoort, which means that the behavior of the rubbers is quite different from one part to another, says Mercedes. There is the new, softer bitumen, laid in 2020, and the older, whose surface is more aggressive. It makes it difficult to balance the car on all the corners.”Dutch Grand PrixLeclerc narrowly beaten for pole but “not comfortable with the car” 17 HOURS AGODutch Grand PrixVerstappen slept late, annoyed by the smoke but on pole: “A crazy thing”18 HOURS AGO
