📝 𝐈𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐆𝐏: 𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐭-𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 📝 He's done it — the man from Monaco is the man for Monza! Charles Leclerc took a stunning victory in Ferrari's home race, five years after he achieved the same feat on home soil. It shows that despite starting from pole, Lando Norris lost all advantage after being overtaken by his teammate and outsmarted by Ferrari with their outstanding one-stop strategy. In case you missed out on the Italian Grand Prix, here's a little reminder of what happened in Monza: 📉 Red Bull no longer gives you wings: Red Bull has no answer to their rivals McLaren, Ferrari, and Mercedes in Italy as they saw their lead on the constructor's championship shrinking fast with the former two right within striking distance in the standings. ❌ K-Mag banned: Haas' Kevin Magnussen will be banned from the upcoming Azerbaijan Grand Prix after collecting 12 penalty points. ↗️The only way is to go up for Williams: After getting rid of Logan Sargeant, Williams scored points in Italy, with Alex Albon finishing ninth while rookie Franco Colapinto finished in a respectable 12th-place finish on his debut.

Lewis Hamilton's Final Race for Mercedes Ends in Disappointment Lewis Hamilton suffered ill fortune on his final race for Mercedes as Lando Norris claimed the pole position. Hamilton will start his final race for the team 16th on the grid, while Norris led home a McLaren one-two. If there was any need for a moment to sum up Lewis Hamilton's final season for Mercedes, in what is set to be his worst F1 season, it was this gigantic slice of ill fortune in Saturday's qualifying under the night sky in Abu Dhabi. In need of improvement on his final lap in Q1, Hamilton looked pacy until a loose bollard flew under his car floor and stayed there, wedged, for the rest of his lap. Needless to say, it impacted his speed and he qualified third-slowest in his 246th and final qualifying session for Mercedes. He will start 16th on Sunday due to grid penalties. The disappointing qualifying session marks a significant setback for Hamilton, who was expected to finish his final season with Mercedes on a high note. However, the incident with the bollard ultimately cost him a chance at a better starting position for the race. Hamilton's final race for Mercedes ends in disappointment as he starts 16th on the grid. It's a bitter-sweet end to his tenure with the team, but he can take solace in the fact that he will be remembered as one of the greatest drivers in the sport. #sport #sportrace

🔴 NEWS: Max Verstappen believes that Red Bull does not have the fastest car on the grid anymore and that there is some work to do following the British Grand Prix. The Dutchman qualified in fourth place after damaging his floor in Q1 on Saturday. He went on to finish second behind home hero Lewis Hamilton. This was mainly possible to George Russell‘s retirement and McLaren‘s strategic error with Lando Norris. With his hard tyres in the final stint, Verstappen was able to come back in the race. He had to get the tyres into the working window before gaining on Norris. But initially, Verstappen feared he would end up as low as fifth or even sixth. “If you look at an average stint, the others were much faster and drove away,” Verstappen told ‘Viaplay’ after the race. “McLaren only chose the wrong tyre, because if Norris was on the mediums, I would have had no chance.” ⬇️ What do you think? #F1 #Formula1 #MaxVerstappen #Verstappen #MV1 #RedBull #RB20 #RedBullRacing #BritishGP #Silverstone #F1Race #FIA #F12024 #Race #Racing #Racer #GrandPrix #GP #F1Tech #Official #Car #RaceCar #News #Update #F1Racing #Motorsport #RacingUpdate

Let’s have a look back at the last five winners of the Brazilian GP 🇧🇷 2018: Hamilton’s win (along with Bottas’ 5th place finish) helped Mercedes take their fifth consecutive Constructors’ Championship. 2019: An all Red Bull academy graduate podium saw Gasly and Sainz claim their first F1 podiums. 2021: After a stunning comeback in the sprint race, Hamilton produced another stellar drive from 10th to take victory. 2022: Russell clinched his maiden F1 win ahead of Hamilton for a Mercedes 1-2. 2023: Verstappen took the record of highest percentage of race wins in a season from Ascari. #f1 #braziliangp #brazilgp #formula1

🏁 What Happens When Two F1 Drivers Set the Same Time in Qualifying? 🏁 Ever wondered what happens if two drivers clock the same time in F1 qualifying? 🤔 According to Article 39.4(iv) of the FIA F1 Sporting Regulations: "If two or more drivers set identical times during Q1, Q2, or Q3 or SQ1, SQ2, or SQ3, priority will be given to the driver who set it first." In simpler terms, the driver who sets the time first gets the higher grid position. 📈 This weekend, we witnessed an exciting example of this rule in action! Max Verstappen (Red Bull Racing & Red Bull Technology) and George Russell (Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team) both recorded a 1:12.000s lap time during qualifying in Canada. Russell set the fastest time first, earning him the priority despite Verstappen matching his time. 🇨🇦🏎️ This rare occurrence reminded us of the 1997 European GP, where Michael Schumacher, Jacques Villeneuve, and Heinz-Harald Frentzen all set identical qualifying times of 1:21.072. Villeneuve, who set the time first, took pole position and went on to win the world championship the next day amid a famous controversy with Schumacher. 🏆 F1 qualifying has certainly evolved since then, but the excitement and drama remain unchanged! #MotorsportHistory #F1 #QualifyingDrama #Verstappen #Russell #RacingFacts #PrecisionTiming #FIARegulations #Throwback 🔍 What do you think about this rule? Should it be changed or kept as it is? Share your thoughts in the comments!
