Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen placed third and fourth, respectively, and also flip-flopped spots from the morning.
“I had a flawless weekend on track there previous year”.
Ferrari is set to introduce an upgraded Formula 1 engine for this weekend’s Italian Grand Prix, Autosport understands. It has the highest average speed (158 mph) of any race on the calendar, with its long straights seeing cars exceed 200 miles per hour four times in a single lap.
The Finn has achieved just seven podium finishes in 51 Grands Prix since re-joining, while Vettel – without a win in 2016 having won three a year ago – had achieved double the amount of victories by this stage in his Red Bull career and was well on the way to a first drivers’ crown.
Hamilton is aiming for his 50th career win in Sunday’s race.
In the morning, Verstappen, Jenson Button, and Sergio Perez tested out a protective halo device created to reduce the risk of head injuries, following the deaths of F1 driver Jules Bianchi and British IndyCar driver Justin Wilson a year ago.
Kevin Magnussen has been passed fit to compete at this week’s Italian Grand Prix despite suffering a high-speed crash at Spa on Sunday.
“We are very close to the signing”, said ACI president Angelo Sticchi Damiani at a press conference on Wednesday.
“While we have reached an agreement (they) are getting all the small details that are important in a contract together and we will sign this back in England, ” Ecclestone, 85, said. In July 2014, Ecclestone described the existing contract with the circuit a “disaster for us from a commercial point of view”, before pointedly warning “so it’s bye bye after 2016”.
Ecclestone shrugged off the delay.
“Teamwork pays just as it does in Formula One”, he said on Twitter. We can’t sign here.
As Ferrari prepared for home pressures, Red Bull team boss Christian Horner moved to defend Verstappen who, he said, was “on the edge” in his racing in Belgium where both Ferrari drivers said he was risky and reckless.
“You have to do an arrangement that suits both parties”.
