The Monza Grand Prix hasn't started yet, but anticipation is already building to see how many riders will serve penalties. And the news arrives right at the Red Bul housel, Verstappen box in particular…
Verstappen, a new ICE ready
In fact, according to what is reported by Auto Motor a Sport, Red Bull is ready to replace the ICE on the world champion's RB18. As, the ICE would be the only component replaced on the single-seater of the world champion, only five penalty positions should arrive for Verstappen. It would be another race under penalty, after that of SPA & WELLNESS, for the Dutchman who would be called to yet another comeback, which in Belgium was successful and also great. Red Bull knows it has a car that flies and, also for this reason, the specter of having five penalty positions frighten much less.
Red Bull full of penalties: also watch out for Perez
However, the news in Milton Keynes did not end. In fact, according to the latest reports, also Verstappen's teammate Sergio Perez could start from the bottom. The Mexican indeed is preparing to mount the fourth power unit on his RB18 and starting from the rear, together with Sainz's Ferrari, Hamilton's Mercedes and more. In fact, penalties are also foreseen for Valtteri Bottas, Mick Schumacher and others. The list is in fact still very long and the hypothesis of seeing a Spa 2.0 is very large. These should be the big changes for the Italian Grand Prix. However, we are awaiting the penalty which will probably arrive during the first free practice session scheduled at 14.00. With these penalties, the possibility of having a very particular front row is not excluded, as only Russell and Leclerc are the only top team riders not to face the penalty this weekend.
