Norris pips Verstappen in Dutch practice

Lando Norris

McLaren's Lando Norris upstaged home hero Max Verstappen on Friday in a red-flagged second practice at the Dutch Grand Prix which proved painful for Daniel Ricciardo.

As Norris celebrated knocking Red Bull's double world champion and runaway series leader off the top of the perch in front of his orange army of fans, the Briton's teammate Oscar Piastri inadvertently provoked Australian mayhem.

Piastri lost control of his McLaren, his car's nose ending up in the barrier, the rear sticking out onto the track, at the banked turn three of Zandvoort's twisty, punishing seaside circuit.
