F1: Scenes from Italian GP – Sunday

Photos by Federico Basile.

Max Verstappen scored a dominant Italian Grand Prix win, rising from seventh place on the grid to beat Ferrari pole sitter Charles Leclerc with the race ending under the Safety Car after a late stoppage for McLaren’s Daniel Ricciardo. George Russell

An engine-related penalty dropped Verstappen from second in qualifying to seventh on the grid but when the lights out at the start in Monza the Dutchman back was quickly on the attack. Our Federico Basile snapped these photos for your enjoyment.
