Lando Norris won the Dutch Grand Prix on Sunday, taking his second consecutive Formula 1 victory in a race marked by a crash for home favorite Max Verstappen, according to Correio da Manhã.

The win at Zandvoort follows Norris's previous race victory, giving the McLaren driver back-to-back wins on the calendar. The race was described by the Portuguese outlet as eventful, with Verstappen's accident playing a central role in the outcome.

Verstappen, racing in front of his home crowd in the Netherlands, crashed out during the Grand Prix. The incident removed the Red Bull driver from contention and cleared a path for Norris to take the checkered flag. Correio da Manhã reported the win without detailing the exact circumstances of the crash or its timing in the race.

Brazilian driver Gabriel Bortoleto finished 13th in the race, according to GE. The result came amid a chaotic afternoon at the circuit, where multiple incidents beyond Verstappen's crash shaped the final standings.

Norris's victory extends his recent run of form and adds to the championship picture, though the reports do not specify how the result affected the overall drivers' standings. Motorsport.com noted that Norris revealed a key factor behind his success in the Netherlands, but the outlet's summary did not disclose what that advantage was.

The Dutch Grand Prix marked the latest round of the 2026 Formula 1 season. With Norris now winning back-to-back races, attention turns to whether he can maintain the momentum in the upcoming rounds.
