OFFICIAL GRID: Who starts where in Zandvoort after Magnussen, Albon and Hamilton demoted
Can polesitter Lando Norris nail his start this time and beat Max Verstappen into Turn 1? That's the key question that will be answered after the lights go out in Zandvoort, as the McLaren and Red Bull rivals again line up on the front row.
Norris has team mate Oscar Piastri riding shotgun behind him, but no such luck for Verstappen (Sergio Perez lines up fifth) who will have Mercedes' George Russell looking to jump him from P4 on the grid.
Charles Leclerc is the lead Ferrari in P6, while the Aston Martins of Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll fill row four, with Alpine's Pierre Gasly and the second Ferrari of Carlos Sainz completing the top 10.
Notably out of place is Lewis Hamilton, who qualified a disappointing P12 for Mercedes and was then dropped three places for impeding Perez. After others' penalties, he now starts 14th.
There was even bigger disappointment at Williams. Alex Albon had ended Saturday a spectacular eighth, only to be disqualified for a technical infringement on his car's floor.
Both he and team mate Logan Sargeant, who missed qualifying after his heavy FP3 crash, will start from the back after stewards granted them permission to race.

Finally, starting from the pit lane will be Kevin Magnussen, after Haas opted to change power unit elements on his car following qualifying. The Dane had been due to start 13th.
