Formula 1 returns after the mid-year break with 10 race weekends left in the season and both the drivers' and constructors' championships up for grabs.

After early season dominance from Red Bull and Max Verstappen, rivals have caught up to the defending champions and set up a potentially thrilling climax to the 2024 season.

McLaren has been Red Bull's main challenger this season. They enter this weekend's Dutch Grand Prix second in the constructors' championship, just 42 points behind Red Bull.

Australian Oscar Piastri and English teammate Lando Norris have both collected their maiden grand prix wins this season, and look poised to challenge for victories in the remaining 10 weekends this season.

Piastri, who took his maiden grand prix win in Hungary, said he was "excited" to return to racing as the championship resumes.

"I was really happy with my driving before the break and it was good to get the win in Hungary and second place in Spa," Piastri said.

"I'm looking forward to getting back in the car in Zandvoort as it's always a good race weekend, especially with cool characteristics like the steep banking.

"I'll be working hard to keep on improving my position in the championship."

During the mid-year break Piastri posted an image on social media that showed he had suffered a fractured rib.

The time stamp on the image was one day after the British Grand Prix, and 13 days before his triumph in Hungary.
