Red Bull star Max Verstappen is a Formula 1 race winner once again after a stunning performance at the Italian Grand Prix on Sunday afternoon.

The four-time and reigning world champion started the race at Monza on pole position and went on to win by a margin just shy of 20 seconds, putting on a dominant display in front of the Italian crowd to claim his third victory of the season.

Of course, that doesn’t tell the full story. Verstappen did lose the lead in the early stages, forced to concede first position to McLaren’s Lando Norris having only stayed ahead of him by cutting the corner at the first chicane.

However, the Dutchman quickly found himself back in front in the following laps, and he never looked back from thereon out, eeking out his advantage over the McLaren star further and further with every passing lap.

Norris eventually came home in second despite some late pit-stop drama, with his team-mate Oscar Piastri having to let him back through after the Brit gave up pit stop priority to protect Piastri from Leclerc behind.

Elsewhere, Ferrari finished P4 and P6 with Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton at their home grand prix, with Mercedes’ George Russell finishing P5. Alex Albon, Gabriel Bortoleto, Kimi Antonelli and Isack Hadjar rounded out the top 10 at Monza.
