REIGNING champion and championship leader Max Verstappen is odds-on favourite to win the F1 Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort.
The Dutchman is unstoppable right now, and is hurtling towards his second consecutive world championship title with eight races remaining.
He’s 93 points clear of Red Bull colleague Sergio Perez and 98 ahead of Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc in the standings.
Verstappen needs four wins from the remaining eight races to seal the deal, and he’s likely to grab the first of those four in front of his home crowd at Zandvoort.
Verstappen cruised to victory in last year’s Dutch GP, and he’s relishing the opportunity to do it again.
He said: “Yeah, I mean it was already incredible last year.
“And yes, it’s an amazing track, I think, with a Formula 1 car, especially on a quali lap. Amazing atmosphere, there will be a lot of orange around, so again, looking forward to the weekend.”
Charles Leclerc is next in the betting at 7/2, ahead of Carlos Sainz and Sergio Perez, who are available at 9/1 and 10/1 respectively.
Mercedes pair Lewis Hamilton and George Russell follow next at 12/1 and 16/1 with Lando Norris completing the top seven at 175/1.
