Max Verstappen got into McLaren’s intern

The Dutch thought about the papaya rules that forced Oscar Piastri to leave his place to Lando Norris after a boxes error. In addition, the Dutch lowered expectations after his overwhelming success of Monza.

In full GP of Italy, and a stabGianpiero Lambiase, when he told him that the McLaren had changed track positions for the error in boxes. LAndo Norris was trapped almost six seconds in his arrest for a problem in changing the left front tire and returned to the track behind his partner Oscar Piastri. From the dome of the Woking team came the order to modify positions. Later, Andrea Stella, director of the English Team, would talk about “valuable principles.” The tetracampeón laughed when he found out.

After his victory in Monza, he was asked what McLaren’s situation thought. “It’s not my problem,” said shear. But, when the question was if he would accept that order as Piastri did, there was blunt: “Definitely, I wouldn’t have done it.” Max does not go with rodeos and no one doubts that that guideline would never have accepted.

Beyond McLaren’s mess, Verstappen left Italy with an almost surreal triumph. Not because he does not have the conditions for triumph overwhelmingly as he did, but because his RB21 was far from fighting McLaren. Therefore, more than one surprised his triumph for 19S207 advantage over Norris. Thus he sealed his 66th victory in F1 and with a record average for the 53 laps of 250,706 km/h.

For the resurgence of Red Bull and Verstappen, the Milton Keynes team brought changes in the RB21, basically on the floor. This aerodynamic improvement was felt on the Italian track, especially because the 2025 Austrian car behaves better on clues with low aerodynamic load. If that adds to that that Verstappen feels better a car with little rear loadthe combo was perfect for the Dutch and lethal for his rivals. Can that light a light of hope for the fifth crown in 2025? Max himself replied.

“You should not wait for Red Bull Competitive in every weekend for this success. The reality is that it still depends a little on the track. It always seems that our car is a bit more competitive when the aerodynamic load is low or medium”gave the tetrampeon. We will have to write it down as a candidate on tracks such as Interlagos or Las Vegas, for example.

“It’s not that we suddenly returned. The positive is that we seem to understand a little more what we have to do with the car to be more competitive. So I hope this continues in the next dates and that some tracks are a bit better than others,” hill.

Beyond his triumph, the 94 points that separate him from Piastri, the leader, are an almost impossible ribbon. And there are several factors to argue is sentence: McLaren is much higher, beyond Monza, and Verstappen battle only in Red Bull. To try to discount such a distance, the Dutch should have a partner to help him, something that does not happen with Yuki Tsunoda. The Austrian team accumulated 239 points on the 16 dates that are played from 2025, 230 were courtesy of Max …
