This F1 season is looking better than ever, with plenty of thrills, spills, and excitement in every race. Can Red Bull and Verstappen hang onto their crowns or will they be overtaken in the race for the Championships? Whatever happens, you can bet on it all here at Stake Sportsbook.
Return from Summer Break & Netherlands Formula 1 History
The thrilling 2024 season of F1 betting returns at the end of August for the Dutch Grand Prix after the summer break. Max Verstappen is returning home as he looks to break his run of four races without a win, while McLaren, Ferrari, and Mercedes will all hope to continue closing the gap on Red Bull.
The first-ever Dutch Grand Prix was held in 1950, and it was previously designated as the European Grand Prix. It was held annually from 1950 to 1985 and then returned to the Formula One World Championships in 2021. Legendary driver James Hunt won his first race at the Dutch Grand Prix in 1975, beating Niki Lauda. Lewis Hamilton set the current lap record at one minute and eleven seconds in 2021.
The last Dutch Grand Prix was won by Max Verstappen, who took pole position ahead of Fernando Alonso and Pierre Gasly to win in front of a lively crowd. Jim Clark is the most successful driver on the circuit with four wins, though Verstappen will equal his record if he wins this upcoming race.

The Dutch Grand Prix 2024 is held at Circuit Zandvoort, in Zandvoort, close to Amsterdam. The race gets underway on August 25 with the race weekend and practice sessions starting on the morning of August 23.

Dutch GP 2024 Picks, Predictions & Favourites
Max Verstappen hasn’t won in his last four races and has just one podium finish in that span. However, he’s still one of the top favorites to win the Dutch Grand Prix in what is sure to be a lively ambiance. Not only would winning put him as the joint-most successful driver on the Zandvoort Circuit, but it would also be his fourth year in a row winning here.
The issues with Red Bull have blown this season wide open, potentially opening the door to challenges from McLaren, Ferrari, and Mercedes. Lando Norris is slightly ahead in the odds to win the GP before practice gets underway, though the odds will change between now and race day. Lando’s teammate Piastri is also predicted to race well, adding to the pressure on Red Bull in the Constructors Championship.
While Mercedes had a very poor start to the season, the team appears to have finally solved the issues they’ve been having. They’ve won three of the last four races before the summer break, and Lewis Hamilton has won two of those, showing much-improved form.
We’re picking Max Verstappen to return to winning ways, but Norris will push him close, and there’s sure to be an electrifying atmosphere around the track, thanks to the Orange Army.
