Qualifying for the Italian GP at Monza is underway. Ferrari arrives with a new engine codenamed ADUO-2 and is targeting pole position in front of their home crowd.
However, there is a real threat from Mercedes. Andrea Kimi Antonelli is confirmed to start from the back of the grid due to a penalty, making the race a predicted two-against-one battle.
New Ferrari Engine and Pressure at Home
Ferrari brings a significant upgrade package for the Italian GP. The ADUO-2 engine is expected to deliver extra performance on a fast circuit like Monza.
The pressure is clearly felt in the red garage. The tifosi have high hopes for Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton to take the top spot, while also avenging rivals' dominance this season.
Mercedes Ready to Block, Race Strategy Key
Mercedes arrives with high confidence. Despite losing one of their drivers at the front, they still have a reliable weapon to disrupt Ferrari's plans.
Without Antonelli in the front row, the balance of power shifts. Ferrari must think smart, not only for a single fast lap but also for a perfect race strategy on Sunday.
