F1 Monza, Qualifying Report
Lando Norris and McLaren are deadly seriousand now they strike terror into Max Verstappen. Just in the weekend when Red Bull seemed most optimistic, the Woking team monopolizes the front row of Monza for the fourth time in its history after the editions of 1988, 2007 and 2012: thanks to Norris (1:19.327, fifth career pole) and Oscar Plateswho stops 109 thousandths behind his teammate. With a simple race management, Norris can gain many points from Verstappen, only 7th in an unrecognizable Red Bull, and sensationally reopen the World Championship.
Second row for an excellent George Russell (four thousandths from Piastri) and for a Charles Leclerc who has to settle for fourth place (+0.134). The Monegasque precedes his current teammate – Carlos – by six thousandths Sainz – and 52 thousandths of the future – Lewis Hamilton.
