Formula 1 Dutch Grand Prix predictions & best bets

Dutch GP 2025 betting predictions

Oscar Piastri to win

After leading the drivers’ championship into the summer break, Piastri knows he needs a strong result at Zandvoort to maintain his edge in the title fight. The Aussie was electric in the first half of the season, and with McLaren’s package ideally suited to high-downforce circuits like this, he is well placed to pick up where he left off. If he nails qualifying, expect Piastri to control the race from the front.

Charles Leclerc podium finish

Leclerc was building strong momentum before the summer break, with several impressive qualifying performances and solid race pace to match. Zandvoort’s technical layout should suit the Ferrari, and if Leclerc picks up where he left off, a podium finish is well within reach.

Isack Hadjar points finish

Hadjar continues to impress in his rookie campaign and could be one to watch at Zandvoort. With chaos often striking in the midfield and limited overtaking spots rewarding track position, the young Frenchman has a real shot at cracking the top 10.
