3.7

Monza 2025 was tidy and low-drama: Max Verstappen controlled the race from the front, with Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri following him home for a straightforward Red Bull vs. McLaren podium. Overtakes were limited, strategies looked predictable, and with just one DNF there wasn’t much to shake up the order. The McLarens kept Verstappen honest at times, but the lead never truly looked under threat beyond brief interest around the pit window. Unless you’re a fan of clinical execution or of the podium finishers, this one is skippable.
