Italian Grand Prix- Monza 13.00

Could be interesting (relatively speaking) as the track will be green following yesterday's rain which also delivered a mixed up grid- the two Red Bulls have grid penalties, so Stroll in 2nd and the Ferraris further down than usual...

Good to see the youngesters like Stroll and Ocon... especially Stroll considering his start to his F1 career

Unfortunately typical of Max's luck this season to put in a performance like that and still start at the back. Lad's not had a chance this season.

And now Stoffel has been put back. At least it sounds like Honda is finished!

Lewis is the only driver to start in the position he qualified in.

Second, maybe third best track on the GP circuit, after Belgium and possibly Silverstone.

Can't remember it myself, assumed it was a first as they keep mentioning it

That's barking, Max qualified 2nd, got a 20 place grid penalty but starts 13th.

Come on Lewis, do the job today and you are right back in the title hunt. Vettel will not enjoy being further back in the pack going into the first corner. Fingers crossed someone takes him out.

Mercs will always win on the fast tracks, unless they have a problem or the driver does something stupid. Nailed on for LH.

So Magnusson was knocked out in Q1 and qualified 16th but thanks to the various penalties starts 9th.

Verstappen has been unlucky with mechanical issues this season but he needs to learn when he can overtake and when he can't. Still very young and it shows by the number of incidents that he gets caught up in.

It was all over at the start.

F1 is so loaded with stupid rules and punishments.
Engines, gearboxes, tyres blah blah blah.
Rules added, rules taken away some for the better some worse.
The best thing that F1 could do is go back to the drawing board and start again.
I just want to see very fast, very safe and very noisy cars going round a track, with competitive racing and overtaking where it is more about the driver than the car.

You could have written that just after the Mansell, Prost, Senna, Piquet era... nothing has changed.

"Vandoorne going slowly in the McLaren" - nothing unusual there then.

 

[sjamesb3466]

Come on Ricciardo, ruin the Ferrari's day!

 

[Marty___Mcfly]

Ha- Alonso absolutely livid Palmer didn't have to give the place back!

Hope Danny Ric can catch the Ferraris..
