Verstappen has never lost in front of his adoring fans since Zandvoort returned to the F1 circuit in 2021 and completely dominated the drivers’ championship last year with 19 victories. But after a strong start this season, the Red Bull driver has failed to win the last four GP races and he said the feeling was very different coming into Sunday’s battle than in 2023.

“Last year coming here, I was a lot more confident that we had a big chance of winning. Lately you see there are a lot of cars actually winning races and drivers, of course. It’s very close,” Verstappen told reporters.
