After a disappointing end to the Belgian Grand Prix a week ago, F1 will return to the Dutch Grand Prix this weekend after a 35-year hiatus. The Belgian GP was a sheer disappointment as just two laps were completed behind the safety car before the winner was declared as rain played spoilsport. Red Bull Racing's Max Verstappen was deemed the winner with Williams' George Russell finishing an outstanding second.
However, drivers were awarded just half points for the race as less than 75% of the Grand Prix was completed. Hence, Verstappen was awarded 12.5 points instead of the usual 25 while Lewis Hamilton, who finished third, was awarded 7.5 instead of the usual 15. Consequently of the Belgian GP results, Verstappen (199.5) reduced championship leader Hamilton's (202.5) lead to just three points in the Drivers' Championship. Ahead of this weekend's race, here is a look at how to watch Dutch Grand Prix live in India, and the Dutch GP qualifying results.
