The Dutch Grand Prix was held on September 4, 2022, at the Zandvoort Circuit in Zandvoort, the Netherlands. The race was won by defending winner Max Verstappen of the Red Bull Racing team.
The race consisted of 72 laps and was the 36th overall race of the Dutch Grand Prix, the 32nd time the event has been held as part of the Formula One World Championship, and the 34th World Championship race held at the Zandvoort Circuit.

Finally, we have an intrepid pigeon that fearlessly crossed the circuit track walking slowly. Fortunately, the pilots were able to avoid it and it continued to live. That’s how it all went:
