💨 Abstract

Max Verstappen, the defending four-time F1 champion, heads to the Monaco Grand Prix with renewed confidence after his recent win at Imola. Despite McLaren's early-season dominance, Verstappen is within striking distance of the championship leaders. The Monaco track, known for its unique challenges and slow corners, may favor McLaren's nimble car. Verstappen acknowledges the difficulty of the circuit, having finished sixth last year. The race features a mandatory two-stop strategy, adding complexity.
