What is the weather forecast for the 2025 Dutch Grand Prix?

Formula 1 heads to the Netherlands this weekend as the Dutch Grand Prix kicks off the second half of the season – but what sort of weather can the drivers expect at the Circuit Zandvoort?

Back in 2023, Zandvoort played host to a memorable rain-hit race, a day in which Max Verstappen navigated the changeable conditions to claim victory in front of his home crowd. Mixed weather also affected the 2024 event on Friday and Saturday.

As things stand, it looks like showers could again be on the cards for this year’s visit to the Dutch track, with periods of rainfall currently forecast during all three days of action for Round 15 on the calendar.

Alongside the possibility of wet weather, the drivers and teams are also likely to be faced with cloudy and breezy conditions during the Dutch Grand Prix weekend.

Lando Norris was triumphant at Zandvoort last year, but can the McLaren man succeed again in 2025 and further reduce team mate Oscar Piastri’s championship lead in the process?
