Alonso's Record Streak: The Unbreakable Dutch GP Run
26 Aug
Summary
- Alonso is the only driver to score points in every Dutch GP since 2021.
- He secured this record by finishing ninth in the 2026 Dutch Grand Prix.
- Max Verstappen's chance to match the streak ended with a crash in 2026.
Fernando Alonso has cemented his place in the Formula 1 record books by scoring points in every single Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort since the circuit's return in 2021. This remarkable streak concluded with the 2026 Dutch Grand Prix, where Alonso secured ninth place. Starting from 18th on the grid due to a rear-wing issue, Alonso battled his way forward, ultimately earning two crucial points for Aston Martin and ensuring his run remained intact.
The consistency record saw Alonso score in six consecutive races, from sixth-place finishes in 2021 and 2022 with Alpine to a second-place podium in the rain-affected 2023 event with Aston Martin. He followed this with 10th in 2024 and eighth in 2025, each result extending his unique achievement. Even Max Verstappen, the dominant home hero, couldn't match Alonso's feat, as his bid ended with an opening lap crash in the 2026 finale.
