I’d just like to see Bottas give Hamilton some whipping so the Monza race will be a little bit nice! Or else Hammertime will rule again 😜 I bet the silver-black arrows will lap the backmarkers again & again 😉 (or Ferrari ooops!) 😲

And Verstappen on the mix to keep Mercedes-AMG up to their toes 😁

It seems that the end of the party modes has not worried the Mercedes much! 😁



A new track record, and a seventh Monza pole for Hamilton, with both black silver arrows 0.8s faster than third, a surprising McLaren by Sainz!... and again, Kimi was faster than Vettel! 😎

They certainly will on the Bahrain short track (less than a minute per lap!)

Yes, but it also depends on how many times the Safety Car is deployed... in Barcelona there were no Safety Car periods, and even the 4th classified was lapped. Only the podium finishers were in the same lap 🤦

I’m not expecting anything from Scuderia Ferrari this Monza GP. Both might not even score a single point AGAIN coming out from Spa 😲 But their GP posters are too good not to share 😉 Hoping for an enjoyable race! 👍 Stay safe everyone!

Fantastic first lap. McLarens running 2nd and 3rd! But Hamilton may have this sewn up already.

Race ruined by safety car. That wasn't a dangerous part of the circuit to push a car out of the way.

What a cock-up.

Signs for pit-lane closure were totally inadequate. And how did McLaren drop so far down after the pitstops. Almost an accident extricating Leclerc's Ferrari.

Red flagged now?
Yep. And Lewis has to take a stop-go within 3 laps of the restart having lost all his lead advantage.
