WEEKEND WARM-UP: The drivers look forward to the return of Zandvoort

The dunes of Zandvoort await this weekend with the Dutch Grand Prix returning, and the drivers are preparing to take on a new challenge in front of Max Verstappen's home fans.

Verstappen was a focal point on Thursday, this being his home race but also a prime chance to overturn what is just a three-point deficit to Lewis Hamilton in the championship.

Kimi Raikkonen also made headlines having announced his retirement from F1 on Wednesday, the veteran to leave a massive void in the sport when he departs at the end of 2021.
