Max Verstappen turned around Red Bull’s tricky start to Formula 1’s 2024 Imola Grand Prix, beating McLaren pair Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris in qualifying as Ferrari’s challenge disappeared.
Having struggled in all three practice sessions so far at the Emilia-Romagna race, Verstappen hailed Red Bull's pre-qualifying set-up changes for 'feeling a bit better and I could push a bit'. 'This track is unbelievable,' Verstappen added. 'And to be on the limit here, close to the gravel – I touched the gravel in the last corner – I'm still pumping. The adrenaline is very high.
Magnussen ended up 19th ahead of Fernando Alonso, who missed the start of the opening segment as Aston Martin worked to repair the car he had damaged during his FP3 crash. But the Spaniard abandoned his final effort as he failed to improve on his personal best late on having made a mistake and gone through the Tamburello exit gravel on his second attempt.
