Verstappen crashes out of home Dutch GP on opening lap

ZANDVOORT: Max Verstappen crashed out of his home Dutch Grand Prix at the end of the ‌first ⁠lap on ⁠Sunday, halting the race.

"I'm OK," Red Bull's four-time Formula One world champion said over the team radio.

Verstappen's ​car went ⁠into the ‌concrete wall ​on ​the outside of ⁠the banked corner before skidding back ​across the track, ​with one wheel breaking off and running loose, and scattering debris around.


Verstappen, a three-time ‌Dutch GP winner who had started in seventh place, ⁠got out of the car unassisted at the Zandvoort circuit that is dropping off the F1 calendar after this year's race.
