Amid Max Verstappen's and Red Bull's unprecedented win streak, Ferrari breathed some life into Formula 1 2023 with its special Monza approach.

Its 'Monza special' paid off, with Sainz defeating Red Bull's dominator"[I've had] goosebumps since I crossed that finish line, the whole in-lap watching the crowd and obviously getting out of the car and seeing this," Sainz said after claiming the most meaningful pole of his career."I haven't stopped the goosebumps. It's incredible. In the hotel, arriving at the track, everywhere we go.

"But early in the season, we recognised that the lower downforce was suiting us better. Not just from a sentimental point of view, not just because the crowd is full of red. But it's clearly a circuit that was going to benefit us.Carlos Sainz, Ferrari, Charles Leclerc, Ferrari"Of course, it comes with the Ferrari being on pole in Monza. And that's worth huge amounts to all of us: motivation, the crowd, the tifosi, the drivers; there's nothing better.

"Monza holds such a special place of importance in their season that you can see the package that they bought here was focused on straight-line speed. Neither driver gave an inch, now wanting to be the hero receiving the plaudits from the tifosi on Monza's uniquely iconic podium. A third place that would be celebrated like a victory in the face Red Bull's hegemony.

"I think it was the best way to thank everybody, the support of the tifosi. I was not that comfortable to freeze something five laps before the end. I trust them but I told them no risk at all.Photo by: Ferrari
