Verstappen revealed the RB18’s speed in the third Monza test
With a difference of 0.35 seconds to Charles Leclerc, Max Verstappen showed the speed in today’s third free practice of the Italian GP, which RBR failed to show yesterday before the qualifying tests in the afternoon (17:00).
Max Verstappen began to reveal the dynamics of the RB18 that initially made him the favorite at Monza, for the 16th round of this year’s Formula 1, mainly due to the long straights and fast corners in the first and third sections of the Autodromo located in one suburb of Milan.
Unlike yesterday, Ferrari couldn’t keep up with Verstappen on soft rubber in the closing minutes of the hour-long session in the soft qualifying test. And on top of that, the fuel system in Carlos Sainz’s car failed in the first half hour.
On the middle tyre, Verstappen’s gap to Charles Leclerc and Sainz was less than a tenth after around 40 minutes into this third session of testing – ahead of the fast laps with less fuel and the soft rubber at the end. Although Verstappen didn’t have a clear first lap on the medium tire due to the traffic on the track.
In fact, Verstappen’s time on the medium tire was unbeatable for Sainz on his first fast lap on the soft tire. The champion’s performance followed, setting the final fastest lap of the two days with a 1’21.252. On two attempts, Leclerc failed to close the gap below three and a half tenths but was two and a half tenths quicker than Sergio Perez in the other RB18 – who was 0.6 inches from Verstappen.
Behind the top two teams, the competition was a second away from the Dutchman. And it’s particularly intense as Fernando Alonso (Alpine), Lando Norris (McLaren) and George Russell (Mercedes) were separated by just half a tenth of a second in 5th-6-7th.
Many drivers had serious traffic problems on the track at the very high speeds (up to 330 km/h) in Monza. One of them was Bottas, who after about 20 minutes was forced to slam on the Alfa Romeo’s brakes at the first chicane to avoid the – very slow-moving – Saint.
The Ferrari Spaniard was called before the stewards after the end of those tests over the incident, but will still start from the last places in tomorrow’s race due to a change in the powerplant of his F1-75. However, he faces a game time penalty.
Haas’ Mick Schumacher was able to leave the track with just 10 minutes to go due to a mechanical problem. It was also announced just before the test that Nick de Vries would replace Williams’ Alex Albon in this race. The Brit-Thai is in hospital recovering from emergency appendix surgery.
As such, the Formula E Champion with Mercedes De Vries – who took part in the first free tests with Aston Martin yesterday – will contest the two days in his first race in F1 with Williams. The Dutchman was first 18th today on the medium tire, then after half an hour he had an exit on the first Lesmo and finally finished 14th time on the soft tyre, less than a tenth behind Nicolas Latifi on the other Williams.
