Qualifying 2 Results from Monza

The second qualifying session for the GT World Challenge Europe round at Monza delivered a spectacular benchmark: the #3 Mercedes‑AMG GT3 of Verstappen Racing set the fastest time of the session, underlining the team’s growing presence in international GT3 competition.

The car, driven this weekend by Daniel Juncadella, Chris Lulham and Jules Gounon, immediately showed strong pace and topped the timesheets in Q2. The trio continues to build on the momentum of the wider Verstappen.com Racing programme, which has already made headlines this year in both GT3 and endurance racing.

As many fans will know, the #3 Mercedes‑AMG GT3 is the same machine in which Max Verstappen competed during the Nürburgring Langstrecken Serie (NLS) and the 24 Hours of the Nürburgring, events we have covered extensively. With the launch of RNT‑Motorsports.com, we are expanding that coverage to a broader international motorsport audience.

Jakob van Putten

Jakob van Putten is the founder and editor-in-chief of RNT-Motorsports. Racing started as a hobby: he has followed motorsport since 1994, and Max Verstappen's rise into Formula 1 made him follow it more closely than ever, from Formula 1 and Formula 2 to the FIA WEC, endurance racing, GT World Challenge and the NLS. He started RNT-Motorsports because he enjoys bringing the news himself, and because he hopes to get more people as enthusiastic about the sport as he is. Today he does that together with an enthusiastic team who share the same passion and keep RNT-Motorsports up to date every race weekend. He holds press accreditation at NLS and GT World Challenge events, granted per event rather than as a standing credential.
