Show Notes
Edd Straw is joined by Jon Noble and Samarth Kanal to review an entertaining Dutch Grand Prix. World champion Lando Norris made it back to back wins with a brilliantly-executed race drive at Zandvoort, but was it the Briton's best-ever win, and does this mean the McLaren driver is in the title hunt, or did the Mercedes and Ferrari drivers getting in each others way distort the picture? They also dissect the race's other big talking points, including Mercedes’ late team order swap between George Russell and Kimi Antonelli, Lewis Hamilton's angst at Ferrari’s reluctance to issue team orders, Max Verstappen’s costly error in tricky conditions, and Nico Hulkenberg’s spectacular avoidance of a massive accident.
