Norris Wins Dutch GP, Red Bull Faces Challenges

Red Bull is facing significant challenges as Max Verstappen's performance falters, while McLaren and Lando Norris surge ahead. Verstappen's recent struggles were highlighted at the Dutch Grand Prix, where Norris dominated and won by over 22 seconds, closing the gap in the championship standings. Christian Horner remains confident but acknowledges the need to improve, especially with Verstappen's contract up in 2028 and Mercedes' continued interest. Despite an initial lead, Verstappen struggled with grip issues, which allowed Norris to capitalize and extend his advantage. Charles Leclerc secured third place, holding off Oscar Piastri. The upgraded McLaren car looks increasingly competitive, signaling a potential title challenge in the remaining races.
