Can Ferrari give the Tifosi something to celebrate?

Ferrari head into their home event at Monza on the backfoot following a disappointing Dutch Grand Prix⭕.

While 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz came away from Zandvoort with a respectable fifth-place, it didn’t tell the whole story as a number of teams (McLaren and Mercedes) failed to capitalise on their pace advantag🍌e.

Sainz made a startling admission after the Dutch GP that Ferrari had the sixth-fastest car, even slipping behind Alpine as 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pierre Gasly finished on the podium.

It’s highly unlikely that Ferrari will be as slow at Monza, given that 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc was able to finish third at Spa be♋fore the summer break - another low downforce track.

Rꦆed Bull are going to be in a league of their own as the RB19 - like it🍰s predecessor - excels in being efficient on the straights.

However, on paper, there’s no reason why Ferrari shouldn’t be the second-faste♉st team behind Red Bul💞l.

10-in-a-row

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen has the opꦏportunity t🎃o make F1 history by winning 10 races in a row.

He equalled 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sebastian Vettel’s record on home soil laᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚst time out wi𒉰th his ninth consecutive victory.

Unfꦿortunately for Vettel, h🌊is nine-in-a-row run came at the end of 2013, while Verstappen still has nine more races to add to it.

If reliability is🐷 on his side then Monza should be a walk 🌸in the park.

Out of all of the remaining races, S🗹ingapore may pose the biggest challenge to Red Bull, but even then with the circuit changes, the RB19 will still be the c๊lass of the field.

Monza was the only race McLaren failed to win in 1988 when they won 15 of the 16 races - so maybe history c♕ould repeat itওself?

Another chance for Lawson

Liam Lawson will get a second opportunity to prove his worth with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Daniel Ricciardo continuing to recover from hand surgery. 

Ricciardo crashed in FP2 at the Dutch GP, trying to avoid 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Oscar Piastri’s McLaren at Turn 3.

As a𝓡 result, he fractured his hand and was forced out of the re༒st of the weekend.

Lawson stepped in and performed well, ultimate🍨l꧒y finishing 13th on race day.

He remained in the pack, even overtaking Le🌜clerc at one point.

The good news for Lawson is that he will have three practice sessions to get𒉰 up to speed at Monza, with the forecast set to be dry.

Looming engine penalties?

This weekend could be the perfect opportunity for teams to take new🌞 engine cꦦomponents ahead of the final run of races.

Last y🐬ear🔥, nine drivers took penalties - for engine and gearbox components.

Monza is typically the perf🐬ect venue to do it at as overtaking is easier than at Singapore or Japan - the🐲 next two events - plus if more teams follow suit, the impact of a grid drop is less severe.
