Max Verstappen He beat the McLaren in Monza and with that he took for more than 19 seconds the F1 Italy Grand Prix In its 2025 version, which dismisses Europe of the calendar
The pilot of Red Bullwho started from pole with the fastest return in history, was determined that each of the 53 laps of the race were rating simulations and, except for a start where Lando Norris He surprised him, dominated the rest of the competition.
Verstappen had already broken the speed record at a lap that belonged to Lewis Hamilton with 264,363 kilometers per hour, made in Monza in 2020. Max marked on Saturday 264,682 km/h to take the pole position and on Sunday he averaged 250,706 km/h in the 53 laps of the GP and with it he exceeded the record that belonged to Michael Schumacher, also in Monza, but in 2003, with 247,586 km/h.
Lando Norris It was second place, after attack Monza It is a curve track, predominantly fast and that Max gave a class of how to stop in the Chicanas.
Among the McLarenNorris had the second place insured, but at the PITs stop the team failed and returned it third to the track behind Oscar Plastri.
To amend his mistake and not seem like a father with favoritism, Andrea Stella, Team main papaya, sent Oscar Plastri Return the position, in an anti -circimatic moment of the race, but preferred to avoid conjectures.
Now, the state of the championship has Piastri ahead with 324 points, against 293 of Norris, 31 of difference, when eight major awards are missing in the calendar.
The fourth place went to a stoard Charles Leclercwho tried to put a Ferrari On the podium, but, although he fought with Pastri, he could not stay in the top 3.
George Russell, Lewis Hamilton, Alex Albon, Gabriel Bortoleto, Kimi Antonelli e Isack Hadjar They completed the list of pilots with points.
The Argentine Franco Collapent could not, again, make points with the Alpineworse grid car, and ended in the tenth place, just behind his teammate, the Frenchman Pierre Gasly.
Slip: Verstappen and Norris took sparks
Lando Norris started better than Max Verstappen, went inside, but the Dutch did not give him space and put him to prune the grass before the first curve, the fateful Chicana, and that was where Max was left without a place to turn and had to cut.
As a consequence, Verstappen was on the tip, but Norris’s claims and the common sense of Red Bull dictated to the tetracampeon to return the position and let Lando pass in the goal.
Meanwhile, the local Charles Leclerc ‘stole the portfolio’ to Oscar Piastri and promoted it to fourth place, but that would be a fight that would not end there, since in Tour 6, the Australian of McLaren resumed the site he had since the start.
For his part, Nico Hulkenberg suffered a damage in the return of recognition and could not start the Italy Grand Prix.
Verstappen reminds Lando who is his client
Verstappen is a recurring nightmare in Norris’s dreams. Now in Monza, after the Ríspida start, on Vuelta 4, Red Bull appeared to Lando with a deep and precise braking in the Chicana and snatched the leadership in Monza.
Max flies and separates from the McLaren
Verstappen became the machine to put fast turns and the distance between him and Norris grew up to six and a half seconds and 13 on Piastri in Tour 25.
In the Pitwall, McLaren was looking for answers, maybe carry the average tires much further.
Alonso leaves when he had given a lesson in Bortoleto
The Spanish Fernando Alonso, fought the seventh place with his disciple Gabriel Bortoleto and had managed to pass it in Pits with a superb stop, but the suspension of his Aston Martin burst in return 28 and marked in abandoned the two -time champion.

Pneumatic Management Fight
The performance window of the average tires they started is supposed to close in turn 28, but there were 36 that had negotiated the 53 agreed, and neither Verstappen nor the McLaren entered Pits. The same happened with Lewis Hamilton, the rest of the cars on the track had already passed through the pits.
It was on Tour 38 when Red Bull headed for the boxes and the McLaren stayed on the track, ahead of Verstappen, who mounted the hard rubbers.
McLaren and the eternal socks
Norris led with the same stockings that started, just as Norris, but for return 44 his advantage over Verstappen was less than 12 seconds, so, even if there was a Safety Car, the Red Bull could exceed them when they entered them to change tires.
McLaren plays to be fair and makes a fool of
The return 46 marked the moment when Piastri, finally it was on tires and set up soft to try to compensate for Max’s advantage, Norris would do a return later.
Norris’s stop was a disaster. The left front tire had to be checked and screwed twice and that took away four seconds that cost the second place, which happily took his partner Piastri.
It seemed an exchange of positions in favor of Piastri, leader of the championship, but it was a simple failure of the mechanics, so the team decided that Oscar returned the position, which he had legitimately because the mistakes are part of the sport.
But McLaren decided that he was going to intervene in the course of the race, in order to seem that he does not intervene in the fight for the title.
“Now you can attack, but clean,” they told Piastri.
