Jenson Button expects Verstappen to perform in Monaco
Jenson Button believes Max Verstappen has a good chance of winning his first Monaco Grand Prix, but only if he can keep it together in qualifying.
The Dutchman has demonstrated good results and maturity in 2019. Since his Monaco FP3 crash 12 months ago, the Dutchman has improved significantly. Button insists Red Bull will again be at the front after Daniel Ricciardo won last year.
"If Max gets Saturday right and doesn't shunt in qualifying we all know how quick he is, and especially around street circuits," said Button, the 2009 Monaco winner in a conversation with Sky Sports.
Having produced a 100% success rate of one-twos in 2019, Mercedes are the favourites to continue their streak.
