Max Verstappen’s second home Formula 1 victory and Mercedes’ failed bid to stop him form the centrepiece of this week’s The Race Formula 1 Podcast.

Scott Mitchell-Malm and Mark Hughes join host Edd Straw to discuss how defeat was always seemingly inevitable for Mercedes and explain the truth behind Yuki Tsunoda’s controversial stoppage, restart and then retirement.

There’s also talk of Alpine overcoming McLaren’s Lando Norris despite far worse grid position and Mick Schumacher’s spirited but ultimately fruitless weekend as he faces increasing pressure to find a seat to stay on the grid for 2023.

Our panel also answer questions from [The Race Members’ Club](https://www.the-race.com/members-club/), and discuss every team’s performance over the Zandvoort weekend.
