Will it really be a Ferrari one-two?
The victory drought of Ferrari that has lasted since the 2024 Mexican GP – a splendid win by Carlos Sainz with Max Verstappen playing the role of ‘spoiler’ pro Ferrari for personal interests against Lando Norris – is coming to an end.
At least, this is the feeling of Riccardo Patrese ahead of the weekend when teams and drivers will be busy in the Principality for the Monaco GP: “At the moment, I think Ferrari will be the best in Monaco – said Riccardo Patrese reached by the F1 Hospitality provider Vision4Sport which in partnership with the BWT Alpine team offers an exclusive Monaco yacht experience – also because even if they miss pole position they can count on a ‘slingshot’ start thanks to the smaller turbo.”

“Charles Leclerc will win ahead of Lewis Hamilton with George Russell completing the podium“, Patrese’s prediction for what would be a Ferrari one-two that would boost the Maranello team’s odds while waiting to verify the possible step up with the updates planned for the following week in Barcelona, not forgetting the fact that through the ADUO the Maranello team will be able to intervene on the power unit to improve its performance.
