Dutch Grand Prix 1974 - Race Schedule and Countdown

Lauda claimed his second victory with another Ferrari one-two at Zandvoort, the Austrian's consistency establishing him as Regazzoni's primary championship rival. The Dutch seaside circuit's fast, flowing corners suited Ferrari's superior power and aerodynamics, allowing Lauda to control the race from the front. Regazzoni's second place maintained his championship lead, though Lauda's recent form suggested the Swiss driver faced a serious challenge from his younger teammate. Fittipaldi's third place kept McLaren in mathematical contention, but Ferrari's one-two finishes were building an ominous momentum heading into the season's second half.
