Lando Norris, Oscar Piastri, and Max Verstappen were questioned about the last race before the return of Zandvoort in 2021, but they all struggled to find the right answer.
The drivers were asked not to use their phones to look up the answer, and so the McLaren drivers and Verstappen had to try it themselves.
"I'm gonna take a wild guess, was it Niki Lauda who won the race?
After hearing his answer was correct he moved on to the matter of who had been on pole. "Who was on pole? I don't think it was Niki on pole."
Verstappen helped the Australian figure out who was on pole. It was indeed Nelson Piquet, the Dutchman's father-in-law. Norris was also asked who were on P2 and P3, but the Englishman didn't know either.

Verstappen was asked if he wanted to share his thoughts, but the Dutchman seemed not to know the answer. "I couldn't care less. It's not my problem." the Dutchman responded to the question.
