Grand Prix
F1 track action starts on Friday at Zandvoort with two, 1-hour free practice sessions (FP1 & FP2) for teams to find the perfect setup.
Free practice 3 (FP3) takes place on Saturday afternoon, building up to qualifying; a 3-part session where lap times decide starting positions for the Grand Prix on Sunday.

| Friday | First Practice | 12:30 - 13:30 |
| Second Practice | 16:00 - 17:00 | |
| Saturday | Third Practice | 12:00 - 13:00 |
| Qualifying | 15:00 - 16:00 | |
| Sunday | Grand Prix (72 laps or 120 minutes)* | 15:00 - 17:00 |
*An F1 race has a maximum time of 2 hours, but can run for up to 3 hours if there are red flags. Jump to full timetable.
Spectators with a view of the pits try not to blink. This is where pit crews hone their skills for the 2-second tyre change.
Pitstop Practice at the Dutch GP is from 9:10am-9:40am on Saturday.

This is when the grandstands really start to fill up. 2 hours before lights out, drivers warm-up for the race by waving at fans and answering questions. Last chance photo op before the helmets go on.
The driver’s parade at the Dutch GP is from 1:00pm-1:30pm on Sunday.

A good chance to see the star drivers of the future. F2, the feeder series to F1 has seen many well-known names pass through its ranks. The single-seater cars have an identical chassis, engine and tyres which means it’s all about driver skill and the racing is close.
On Friday the F2 action starts with a 45-minute practice session in the morning and a 30-minute qualifying in the afternoon. The Sprint Race is on Saturday and the Feature Race on Sunday.

Formula 3 is an important step on the road to success in single-seater motor racing. Drivers who do well here usually go on to compete in F2 and sometimes even make the leap to F1.
The F3 schedule starts with a 45-minute practice session on Friday followed by a half-hour qualifying session. A sprint race takes place on Saturday and the second and final race takes place on Sunday morning.

The long-term support act for F1, Porche Supercup is a one-make racing series that accompanies most of the European F1 races and some of the long hauls too.
The schedule for Zandvoort sees a 45-minute practice session on Friday, a 30-minute qualifying session on Saturday and a 30-minute race on Sunday.
