Red Bull and Dutch Max Verstappen examine their eternal favorite status at the Italian Grand Prix at the Monza National Autodrome, the fifteenth round of the Formula 1 World Championship calendar, but this time Carlos Sainz (Ferrari) is surprised by the fact that he reaches pole position in front of the Dutch driver. Fernando Alonso (Aston Martin) will want to confirm his development.

The hegemony of the Austrian team and ‘Mad Max’ seems inexhaustible. And the Dutch GP was another argument to believe that Red Bull would achieve a full victory during the World Cup. In front of the crowds of citizens at Zandvoort, Verstappen added luck to his talent as a driver in a frenetic race where everything was happening. The start was difficult due to the heavy rain, and this then hit the strategic and analytical Dutchman several times, who failed to climb to the top of the box.

But, Carlos Sainz will be the first to start at Monza. The Spaniard took the ‘pole position’ ahead of Verstappen and Monegasque Charles Leclerc (Ferrari) this Saturday. Alonso could only be tenth.

The man from Madrid has reached the fourth pillar of his career, the first one is 2023He confirmed the good performance of his car and its performance at the beginning of the weekend and gave morale to the ‘tifosi’ gathered in the stands of the Monza circuit.

In Friday’s fastest and third pre-qualification practice session, Sainz made it clear from the start that Verstappen would face resistance from the emboldened Ferraris by racing “at home” and are currently avoiding any new dominance. World champion by 13,000.
