F1 Practice Today: Dutch Grand Prix 2024 start times, schedule and how to watch

F1 finally returns from summer break this weekend, with the Dutch Grand Prix at Circuit Zandvoort kicking off the second half of the 2024 season.

The first half was a thrilling and unpredictable affair, with seven different drivers claiming victory in the last 14 races.

Carlos Sainz, Lando Norris, Charles Leclerc, George Russell, and Oscar Piastri each secured a single win, while Lewis Hamilton added two victories to his tally at Silverstone and Spa-Francorchamps.

However, it was Max Verstappen who dominated the scene, claiming the remaining seven wins and solidifying his position as the championship leader.

As the series heads to the Netherlands for the first of the final ten rounds, the Dutchman will be eager to end his four-race win drought and secure his eighth victory of the year in front of his home crowd.
