Red Bull’s Max Verstappen secured a historic 10th consecutive victory by winning the Italian Grand Prix. He took control of the race at Monza and once in the lead, he proved unbeatable. Verstappen’s remarkable streak continued as he outperformed his teammate Sergio Pérez, who finished in second place. The Ferraris driven by Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc took third and fourth place, respectively. Mercedes drivers George Russell and Lewis Hamilton rounded out the top six, finishing fifth and sixth.

Verstappen adopted a patient approach in the early stages of the race, starting from the second position on the grid. Eventually, he overtook Sainz to claim the lead, and from that moment onwards, he remained untouchable, just as he had been during his previous nine victorious races. The previous record holder was Sebastian Vettel who had won nine successive races in F1.

Red Bull has achieved their 14th consecutive victory this season, setting a new record. With only eight races left, they are edging closer to achieving the seemingly impossible task of going undefeated throughout an entire season.
