Fernando Alonso says the success of Zandvoort’s banked corner shows Formula 1 track designers were wrong to add so many off-camber turns.

Fernando Alonso said he was “lucky” to avoid crashing out of the Dutch Grand Prix at turn three late in the race. He also had contact with three rivals at the start.

Mercedes believe there wasn’t a point in the Dutch Grand Prix where they missed a clear opportunity to win the race.

Formula 1 drivers suggested allowing DRS at Zandvoort’s final corner next year may aid overtaking. The FIA will study whether it can be used safely there.

Mercedes were eager to point out to Valtteri Bottas that they did not pit him at the end of the Dutch Grand Prix just to give Lewis Hamilton space to set fastest lap.

Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton are both convinced they need more from their cars to come out on top in the championship.

Lewis Hamilton says he was unconcerned by the possibility Valtteri Bottas would take the bonus point for fastest lap away from him, as long as their team scored it.
