LANDO NORRIS produced one of the finest qualifying laps of his career to spoil the Max Verstappen party at Zandvoort.
The Dutch fans roared as their home hero jumped to the top of the timesheets with his final effort of the afternoon.
But Norris, 24, was still on a flying lap and mastered windy conditions to beat the Red Bull racer's best time by more than three-tenths of a second.
