Welcome to the late breaking F1 podcast presented by me Ben Hawking reviewing the Italian Grand Prix qualifying session that has just finished Oh boy,
I do I do love me an Italian Grand Prix qualifying I think it's right up there with one of the best Saturdays that we get throughout the season Maybe Max Verstappen agrees with me
because he has taken pole position for tomorrow's race.
Oh and he said best lap ever in the history of F1 as well.
Just to add that in there as well.
But the result is the most important thing here.
That's what he's achieved.
Pole position ahead of the two McLaren's Lando Norris in second.
Oscar Piastri in third.
A little bit of a Noah's Ark emerging behind Max Verstappen
as we've got both Ferrari's fourth and fearful,
though they won't stay there due to Lewis Hamilton's penalty and George Russell and Kimmy Antonelli in the Mercedes sixth and seventh.
But plenty more going on.
outside of the top 10 as well.
But we'll start right at the top because that lap from Max Verstappen deserves adulation.
And that's exactly what it's going to get on this episode.
We saw, I think, going into this qualifying session.
McLaren's haven't been vulnerable many times so far this year.
