Max Verstappen's engine is already six Grands Prix's old. The team boss of Renault Cyril Abiteboul doubts whether the Dutchman can reach the finish with his first power unit on the Circuit of Monte Carlo.
During the next Grand Prix of Canada, Formula 1 teams are allowed to change their power unit without getting a penalty. 
Red Bull Racing more than proved their pace during both practice sessions.
In addition to the Austrian racing team having to watch out for Ferrari and Mercedes in qualifying, there is also another danger. The French car manufacturer emphasized to Motorsport-total.com that the reliability of their engines is not controlled by current regulations.
"Ricciardo had to change all his engine, that was not scheduled. Red Bull must look out in Monaco and in particular Max Verstappen. "
