F1 TRACKS: Check out the Tiesto x Heineken takeover ahead of the Dutch Grand Prix

Formula 1 returns to the dunes of Zandvoort for the first time since 1985 – and although the 20 F1 cars’ 1.6-litre turbo hybrid engines will be providing the majority of the soundtrack this weekend, when the cars aren’t on circuit, who better to dish out the tunes than legendary Dutch DJ Tiesto?

You can listen to the exclusive Tiesto x Heineken takeover on Spotify, Deezer and Apple Music – and check out our Q&A with Tiesto below:
