Italian Grand Prix: How Max Verstappen surpassed fastest F1 cars in history in taking Monza pole

Verstappen has not won in May since Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix.

He might have expected the champion to be pessimistic to turn it into a victory four times, because McLaren had a much greater advantage than elimination in the races this year, because he’s very good on his tires.

However, Verstappen was relatively optimistic after the quality.

“I’m not sitting here and I think it’s easy to be in front of McLaren,” he said. “The whole season showed it.

“We had a few good quality this season, but we’re always struggling in the race compared to them.

“I will give a good chance. Friday, my long harness was good. I’m not sure that this will be enough, but if we can do something similar and they don’t develop too much, maybe I feel that we have a chance.

“It will be difficult to stay here, but we will see what we can do.”

McLarea Team Director Andrea Stella announced the technical reasons why Verstappen was more competitive than before this weekend.

Stella announced that McLaren is the fastest car in the corners, but that he was wasting time on the plains.

“In the race, the corners become a little longer, because you brake earlier, then you go to the gas butterfly, so the comprehension is limited and this car will naturally make our car more competitive,” he said.

“However, if we take the tour of the tour that we can do in practice in practice, they could be compared with ours.

“We have seen good tour times for Ferrari, good tour times for Mercedes.

“Tarmac is very high after re -emerging last year.

“I think the area will be much more compact, not only what we see today, but also will be qualified in the race.”
