For the “last dance” of the Dutch GP, the hometown favorite opted for a change compared to the last two editions. Verstappen actually chose to return to a white helmet, which had been missing at Zandvoort since 2023.
In 2024, in fact, the Dutchman rewarded the affection of the home crowd with a special oranje helmet, while 12 months later he chose a darker helmet but with orange patterns inside.
