Starting from pole, reigning world champion Verstappen completed a magical weekend at Monza which included the fastest lap ever in F1 in Saturday's qualifying by schooling McLaren pair Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri at Monza.

Red Bull's Verstappen has little chance of securing a fifth straight drivers' title as he still trails championship leader Piastri by 94 points with the Australian finishing third.

"It was really enjoyable," said Verstappen who took the chequered flag in 1hr 13mins 24.325sec.

"I think we pitted at the right time and with the hard tyres at the end you can push a bit more... It was a fantastic execution by everyone.

"I think the whole weekend we were all in. It was super enjoyable to win here."
