Red Bull set 'ultimate speed' target after Max Verstappen heroics

Max Verstappen showcased his driving skills during the Italian Grand Prix, starting from fifth and finishing third despite facing challenges. His performance included impressive overtakes, although he ultimately could not match the pace of Mercedes, who had a clear advantage throughout the race. Kimi Antonelli's remarkable victory from 19th position highlighted the competitive nature of the event.

Red Bull's team principal, Laurent Mekies, expressed admiration for Verstappen's efforts and emphasized the need for the team to achieve 'ultimate speed' to enhance their overall performance. He noted that while they were strong enough to outperform Ferrari and McLaren, there are still challenges to address in order to unlock further potential in their car's performance.
