After her terrible performance in the Netherlands, the McLaren continued to progress laying the groundwork for another great Grand Prix in Italy!
In the qualifiers of Monza, o Lando Norris managed to take the pole position for the second weekend in a row, while he was followed by Oscar Piastriwho completed it 1-2 for the team of Woking and confirmed that the new MCL38 is not… catching!
What is surprising is the incredible competition behind Norris, as five drivers found themselves in distance 87 mm of the second. So, behind the two McLarenin the second row will line up the George Russell and Charles Leclercand in the third the Carlos Sainz and Lewis Hamilton.
On the contrary, Red Bull’s performance was once again problematic, with Max Verstappen to take the 7th position on the grid and Sergio Perez on the 8th. Somehow, a title fight that seemed to have lost interest is about to catch fire…!
