Dutch GP in pictures as F1 prepares for Zandvoort farewell

In the final Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort, Red Bull Racing has introduced new race suits to honor the occasion. Verstappen's suit is distinct from teammate Isack Hadjar's, with orange accents on his shoulders while Hadjar's suit has white shoulders. The starting numbers, 3 and 6, are depicted as a wave in both drivers' suits, paying tribute to Zandvoort's coastal location.

The team shared a video announcement, stating that exceptional moments warrant distinctive gear. The white suits for the upcoming Japanese and Las Vegas Grands Prix are also featured in the video. Verstappen unveiled a helmet adorned with Delft blue accents, a nod to the Netherlands, and shared his reflections on Dutch races. Red Bull Racing expressed their admiration via a post, followed by a special helmet for Verstappen and a clothing line in Delft blue, sold out due to its popularity.
