- Lewis Hamilton holt in Monza die Pole Position.
- For the 94th time, the Briton will start the race from first place.
- Ferrari lives a historical debacle in the GP at home.
It’s a Ferrari debacle of historic proportions. For the first time since 1984 at the Monza GP, no Ferrari driver has left the first five rows.
Charles Leclerc will enter the race on Sunday from 13th position, and his teammate Sebastian Vettel even from 17th position. For the four-time world champion, it ended after Q1. And that of all things at the home Grand Prix.
Vettel: “A disaster”
As a reminder: a year ago Leclerc had shone from pole position, Vettel had started from fourth. Now the Italian racing team is just a shadow of itself. At Vettel, the consternation spread after qualifying. “What a mess,” he said.
Historical setback
Ferrari has no chance in qualifying for Monza.
Keystone
The emotional situation at Mercedes is completely different. The “Silver Arrows” continue to dominate at will. Lewis Hamilton extends his pole position record to 94. Valtteri Bottas will start directly behind him on Sunday. Like in Belgium a week ago, Hamilton set a new record on the field.
Alfa-Romeo without exploit
The superiority also sums up the following statistic: For the seventh time in qualifying eight of the season, Mercedes took the front row. Only in Spielberg’s second race (Bottas from fourth position) did the two Silver Arrows not start again.
At Alfa-Romeo, Kimi Räikkönen once again beat his teammate Antonio Giovinazzi. Raikkonen was in 14th place, Antonio Giovinazzi 18th.
