F1 | Red Bull, Max Verstappen wins at his home: "I've never experienced anything like this"

There is no story for anyone: Max Verstappen hammers, exalts, he is on another planet. The young Red Bull driver easily wins the Dutch Grand Prix, sending the orange army that colored and animated the circuit into raptures. At the start the Dutchman forcefully separated the two Mercedes, and only a few laps had passed when Hamilton announced on the radio that he was unable to keep that pace. The Brackley team tries, attempting a chaotic undercut that didn't work: Verstappen remains firmly in front, taking home a great victory, the seventeenth of his career. With this success, and more than a thousand laps at the head of the group behind him, Max returns to command the championship standings, with 224.5 points, three more than his career rival Lewis Hamilton.

"It's incredible to win here on another home track, and it's great to take back the leadership of the drivers' championship – Verstappen initially said – obviously the expectations were high at the start of the weekend and it's never easy to meet them, but the crowd was incredible and I'm really happy to have won here. It was a tough race, Lewis really put pressure on us and both Mercedes had a good pace, but we managed to maintain a three second gap at the right times and I think that was crucial.".

"We can be satisfied with the performance of the entire team; we made the right decisions and managed the race very well – continued the winner of the Dutch Grand Prix – Seventy-two laps on this track is the best, especially in front of these fans, it was incredible throughout the race, I've never felt anything like this before in my entire life. Obviously I'll celebrate at home tonight, but Monza is around the corner and the title fight is really close, I want to make sure I'm at the top".
