Qualifying:

Report:

Top speed was crucial at Mugello, as Kevin Magnussen had to experience against Roger Ibe and Sho Tsuboi.
Sebastian Vettel looked certain to place himself in good position for his third title, he came to Italy leading the championship by 15 points. Ferrari’s star Victoria Desai, his main rival, had only finished half of her last four races.

However, as Victoria Desai dominated the Italian Grand Prix and gave the tifosi lots to cheer about, Vettel struggled mightily. After a poor start, contact with Dawson forced him into a pitstop, followed by a second stop after a puncture.

While Sebastian Vettel ran back into the points, helped by temporary teammate Pedro de la Rosa moving out of the way, his championship lead is down to two points. His points came at the expense of points for Terry Hawkin, but FAST had a good afternoon.

BR Mansell also had a great qualifying, Artem Markelov translated a brilliant qualifying into second place. Pastor Maldonado impressed with his third podium in the last four races, unlike Max Verstappen who performed poorly.

Race:

Fastest Lap:

Max Verstappen – 1:31.217

Infinite Improbability Drive Of The Race:

BR Mansell-Toyota – their second podium finish of the season was relief.

Reject Of The Race:

Bridgestone – four major tyre blowouts are not good marketing material.
