‘Big mess’ – Verstappen plans to avoid ‘sh*tty’ situation at Italian Grand Prix

Max Verstappen is preparing for the Italian Grand Prix at Monza, where he aims to improve his performance without relying on a tow from his teammate. He has yet to secure a victory this season and currently sits sixth in the championship standings, significantly trailing the leader, Kimi Antonelli. Verstappen recalls his successful qualifying strategy from the previous year, where he achieved pole position without assistance, and plans to replicate that approach this time around.

Despite the potential advantages of using a tow in qualifying, Verstappen is cautious about the risks involved, referencing past incidents that led to chaotic situations on track. He remains focused on optimizing his own car's performance and is leaving team strategies regarding potential tows up to the team's discretion.
