Deಌspite ultimately having to settle with third and fourth in the race, Ferrari’s performance across the weekend, particular🔥ly in qualifying, caught the eye. 

Sainz narrowly pipped Verstappen to take a popular pole position, while teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc ended up third-quickest. 

And Marko believes that Ferr💃ari turned up their power units to the maxim𝔍um in their desperation to seal a famous home win.

“We knew that Ferrari would put everything possible into Monza,” Mark⛄o told Servus TV. “They went to the maximum and♕ squeezed out the last horsepower.

“But we also knew that the engine would suffer later for that. Unlike them, we have a universal car. So we k🦄new it would be tight and didn’t lose our n✤erve.

“But we were st🅺ill surprised that we didn’t keep up with Ferrari at first,” Marko, 80, continued. “Max [Verstappen] had to drive d❀ifferently and change his strategy and just be patient.

“The Max of four or five years ago would not ha☂ve had that patience.”

Verstappen’s victory✱ maintained Red Bull’s inv🃏incible start to the 2023 season.
