A brilliant tactical Italian Grand Prix saw Ferrari delight their home fans with a surprise win in Monza.

Piastri and team-mate Lando Norris both made the decision to two-stop as the hard Pirellis began to degrade more than expected, leaving Ferrari to take the all-or-nothing strategy move.

A first corner incident ruined third-starting George Russell's afternoon early, forcing him in for a long pitstop to replace a damaged front wing which was severely affecting his pace – only able to limp around to seventh place.
