    I think Lewis Hamilton was denied that podium by the VSC. It came at exactly the wrong time for him.

    Chequered flag

    Lando Norris wins the Dutch Grand Prix and his second win in a row in 2026.

    Kimi Antonelli takes second and his Mercedes team-mate George Russell clings onto third place amid late pressure from Lewis Hamilton who can't quite get past him.

    Fortunately for Hamilton, his Ferrari team-mate Charles Leclerc can't get past him either despite the fight going down to the chequered flag.

  3. Final lap

    Lewis Hamilton is STILL glued to the back of George Russell heading into the final lap but now Charles Leclerc's right on his tail as well.

    And the two Ferraris ALMOST come together. Dear oh dear.

  4. Time's running out here for Lewis Hamilton. Can he make a very late move on George Russell and bag himself a podium?

    Now Carlos Sainz gets a 10-second penalty. Penalties all around at the end of this race.

  5. VSC ending

    Liam Lawson receives a 10-second penalty which is a blow for him after a cracking weekend deputising in the Red Bull.

    Meanwhile the VSC doesn't last long and we're back racing under normal conditions.

    This is setting up for an extremely exciting final set of laps.

  7. Lewis Hamilton continues to position his Ferrari right on the back of his former Mercedes but he can't get past him yet.

    And now we have a virtual safety car with the track festooned with debris.

    It’s a shame that Hamilton and Leclerc have a great car but team strategy is hampering them both this season. So frustrating.

    Ferrari are their own worst enemy!

  9. The aging hard tyres on George Russell are letting him down now.

    Lewis Hamilton makes the move on him into turn one but he can't make it stick. Yet.

    I don't think there's any chance Antonelli will close down an 11 second gap in five laps.

  11. George Russell looks like a sitting duck here with the onrushing Lewis Hamilton behind him.

    Away from that action for a podium spot, Franco Colapinto's given 10-second penalty.

  12. Team radio - Mercedes to Russell

    Race engineer: "Move over at turn one."

    George Russell: "Is he going for the win? Is he going to catch Norris? We've lost a double podium here mate"

    "We've lost a double podium here mate" George Russell tells his engineer in the aftermath of him giving up second to his Mercedes team-mate Kimi Antonelli.

    More bad news for Russell - Lewis Hamilton's all over the back of him and is just 0.4 seconds behind.

    Russell doesn't think Antonelli can catch up with Norris.

  15. So Mercedes have decided to swap George Russell and Kimi Antonelli.

    "Is he fighting for the win or is he planning to catch Norris?" Russell replies.

    I can't imagine that decision has gone down well for Russell, but he gives the position away without a fight.

  16. Well we've had a fair bit of entertainment in this race but barring some sort of incident, all Lando Norris has to do here is keep his McLaren on the straight and narrow and this race is his.

    The real late drama could be if Lewis Hamilton and Kimi Antonelli keep taking chunks out of George Russell.

    Can George Russell hold off a chasing Ferrari and his teammate for ten more laps?

    The make-up of this race changes by the lap.

    Lando Norris is 10 seconds ahead of George Russell, who's losing time quite rapidly now.

  19. Kai Bachini
    F1 commentator on Sports Extra

    Russell needs to get out of the way and allow Antonelli in front. From there on Russell can tag along with Antonelli and carry on forwards.

  20. Jennie Gow
    F1 pit-lane reporter in Zandvoort

    Kimi Antonelli is not going to sit back and not fight for this. He's catching up with George Russell. In all honesty, Russell knows he's got a fight on his hands and wants to stay ahead of Antonelli. This is hard graft.

    You have to sit back and wait now, Antonelli is closing that gap by every lap, he's going to be on top of him in the next nine laps.
