Overview
- Race weekend runs August 29–31 at Zandvoort, with the Grand Prix on Sunday at 10:00 in Argentina (official schedule lists practice Friday and Saturday, qualifying Saturday).
- Oscar Piastri leads the drivers’ standings with 284 points ahead of Lando Norris on 275, and McLaren holds a large constructors’ lead over Ferrari and Mercedes.
- Broadcast details in Argentina remain inconsistent, with some outlets stating Disney+ Premium exclusivity and others listing Formula 1 TV and Fox Sports as options.
- Franco Colapinto returned from the shutdown combining rest and targeted training, including neck-strength work, after Alpine’s pace-less Hungary where he and Pierre Gasly finished at the back.
- Zandvoort is expected to reward traction and mid-corner stability, keeping qualifying and tyre management central on a traditional (non‑Sprint) weekend.
