You could say that this is the expected outcome first free practice in Monza, despite the fact that it took place in changing conditions. The Italian race is slowly becoming like rainy classics, as they also gathered over the royal park this time rain clouds, which is why the first training started in the rain. Otherwise, it stopped raining after half an hour, but the trail dried up very slowly, which also led to three interruptions.
Charles Leclerc is on the wings of his first win in Formulas 1which he achieved a few days ago in They connect, set the fastest lap time of the first free practice at Monza. Because the track was against at the end of training already drier, the order changed from second to second as all the race cars were shod in dry track tires. Because of this, he has the order of the first free practice only statistical value.
young Monachan is with time 1:27.905 reached the fastest lap time, which, however, was in sight events on the track and interruptions more in the background. He was followed by both racers McLaren. The other was Carlos Sainz, who was three tenths of a second behind Leclerc, his teammate Lando Norris, who was third, by a good half a second. Lewis Hamilton he was a good eight tenths of a second behind the fourth, fifth Alexander albon but for more than a second, more precisely 1,12 seconds. Sixth was Albon’s former teammate Daniil Kvyat, which was more than two seconds behind the fastest Leclerc. After the Russian in seventh place we find Max Verstappen, and in eighth place he was 2,6 seconds behind Sebastian Vettel. The ninth was the second Mercedes racer Valtteri Bottasand took tenth place Pierre Gasly. From the eleventh place onwards, the following were ranked: Giovinazzi, Stroll, Ricciardo, Magnussen, Hulkenberg, Grosjean, Kubica, Russell, Perez in Raikkonen.
The last two racers didn't drive straight. Kimi Raikkonen took care of the first break after half an hour of training. The Finn is v Parabolics lost control of his rear end, spun around the asphalt excursion zone and landed in a protective fence over the sandy part of the zone. “I'm stuck,”He said over the radio Finnbefore getting out of the car. A few minutes later, he resigned at the same place as well Sergio Perez, who, however, was less fortunate. His 360 degree pirouette ended up in a protective fence. He crashed first with the rear of the car, then with the left front suspension. So was the training interrupted again. Perhaps to some extent the reason for many rotations is best described Max Verstappenwho said: "These tires are so hard, which is why they all fly off the runway. This is crazy.”The third interruption is on the bill Pierre Gaslya, although in his case the leadership of the race decided to suspend too soon. For with the help of the staff along the track, he managed to continue and the young French he returned to the pits himself.
