The Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix showed Red Bull’s progress with its 2025 Formula 1 car, but Max Verstappen doubts this form will carry over to Monaco. Verstappen had a strong race in Italy, showcasing improved tyre management by Red Bull, while McLaren’s performance was underwhelming. The upcoming Monaco Grand Prix features the same tyre allocation as Imola, with tyre wear being less of a concern on the street circuit. Verstappen remains cautious due to Red Bull’s struggles with bumps and kerbs, highlighting Monaco’s challenges for their car. The team’s historical difficulties in Monaco and slow progress in addressing weaknesses over the winter add to Verstappen’s skepticism for the upcoming race weekend. Despite ongoing efforts to improve the car’s setup, Verstappen anticipates a challenging weekend ahead in Monaco.
