Verstappen and Gasly at the back of the grid at Monza
The 2019 Italian Grand Prix hasn't just started Max Verstappen (Red Bull) and Pierre Gasly (Toro Rosso) are already certain of starting from the last places on the starting grid on Sunday September 8 at 15:10 p.m. The two men will in fact use the new Honda engine, called Spec 4 at Monza.
“It is one of the highlights of the season and also the home race for one of our teams, @ToroRosso."

In Belgium, the previous week, Alexander albon (Red Bull) and Daniil Kvyat (Toro Rosso) had the scoop on the Japanese development, and had also received penalty places. “We think that Max and Pierre will still be able to run well on Sunday, predicts Toyoharu Tanabe, the technical manager of the Honda Racing F1 program.
We will try to maximize the potential of the Spec 4, we collected interesting data from Spa-Francorchamps and we used it to modify the Power Unit (tuning, calibration). »
Pierre Gasly sees the good side of things on a track where overtaking is made easier by DRS and the huge straights. “My race will be exciting. Qualifying will be less important for me and with my engineers we will be able to concentrate fully on the race settings, to gain places. »
