1/53 Lando Norris leads into the first corner, Russell locks up and goes down the run-off area. Piastri made sure Russell didn’t get through, and then – amazing – Norris is overtaken by Piastri, then Leclerc came through into second. Norris drops from first to third. Verstappen is up in sixth, and is complaining about Lewis Hamilton

We really have a world title chase on our hands. Exciting, right? Lando Norris on pole, Max Verstappen seventh on the grid. There’s just 70 points in the title chase which seems a lot though Max is getting a bit antsy about his machine’s speed next to the McClaren. And nine races, and 254 points to be won. This is old-school stuff, rather than the procession of recent years. Exciting, risk-taking drivers, not completely foolproof motors, and it will probably look good on Netflix, too. It’s been a better, more exciting season than most expected, and it could get better yet. This vintage old lady of a track could see some real fireworks.

Main Events
Oscar Piastri is disappointed. “It hurts. I'm not going to lie, it hurts a lot. I did a lot of things well today. Going into the race there were a lot of question marks with the strategy.
“One stop seemed like a very risky decision given the condition of the tyres but in the end it was the right one. I'm very happy with the pace and the race I was able to achieve, but finishing second is really tough.”
So is Lando Norris
“Oscar passed me and I was surprised. I don't know what I should have done. If I had braked one metre later I probably would have crashed. We will look at this in the future, but the Ferraris, especially Charles, had the better race.”
Charles Leclerc said: “It's an incredible feeling. I thought the second time, if there was a second time, it wouldn't feel as special as the first time, but the emotion in the last few laps was the same as in 2019. I wanted to win every year at Monza and Monaco and now I've done it. It's really, really special.”
The size and noise of the crowds is bewildering.“I'm surprised you survived,” Piastri says to Leclerc. Lando Norris says nothing. It's been a tough day for him.

The track is now filled with Ferrari tifosiThe screen was filled with red, and Sainz's tires had more holes than the surface of the moon.
“Grazie, grazie, grazie” “That's what Charles Leclerc said. He won despite doubts about the strategy and the pit strategy. “This season is a heart attack,” he said. Ferrari's victory at Monza is the ultimate honour.
Charles Leclerc wins the Italian Grand Prix.
53/53 Leclerc and Ferrari's plan worked. Piastri was outmaneuvered and Leclerc took the chequered flag. Piastri came second, Norris set the fastest lap for third, Sainz fourth and Hamilton ahead of Verstappen for sixth. “Monza, Meer, Monza, Meer.”
52/53 Piastri wasn't quick enough, Leclerc remained calm under pressure and took the lead on the final lap. The noise was deafening.
51/53 Piastri is seven seconds behind Leclerc and looks unlikely to catch the Monte Carlo native.
50/53 Russell is told Verstappen is within reach, and the Ferrari fans erupt in cheers.
49/53 Verstappen was worried that Russell would steal the points. Leclerc did another lap on the tyre, eliciting huge cheers from the Ferrari fans.
48/53 Norris overtook Sainz for third place, with the two McLarens now chasing Leclerc.
47/53 Norris has to overtake Sainz, but it will take him longer than Piastri.
46/53 Verstappen set the fastest lap while chasing Hamilton.
45/53 “My right-front tyre is about to go,” Sainz said, “but I'll try.” But Piastri soon overtook the Ferrari. He is 11.6 seconds behind Leclerc, who is on older tyres than Sainz.
44/53 Ferrari's strategy is high risk, while Verstappen is desperate to score points by chasing Hamilton.
43/53 So it all depends on the speed of Piastri and Norris and the condition of Leclerc and Sainz's tyres.
42/53 Piastri and Norris are being asked to chase Ferrari, who are keen to maintain their lead, while Verstappen pits behind Hamilton in sixth place, with Russell close behind.
Norris overtakes Verstappen
41/53 He overtook comfortably to move into fourth place, with Piastri setting the fastest lap.
40/53 Verstappen and Norris collided, with Verstappen making an excellent save.
39/53 Piastri pits. Did someone's leg get run over? Leclerc and Sainz are in the lead. They only pitted once. Is Ferrari on a one-stop strategy?
38/53 Asked if he could make it to the end, Piastri replied that his front tyre was gone, before Russell passed Perez and the pair barely had any room for each other.
37/53 “It's impossible to defend,” Verstappen said of Norris closing in on him at breakneck speed, who is currently setting the fastest lap and appears to be at the limit for McLaren.
36/53 This is one of the fastest races ever and it could be over in under 75 minutes. Perez has pitted, so where will he face off against George Russell? But it's a close call and that's what will happen for the rest of the race. What about Verstappen?
35/53 Piastri still set the fastest lap, 5.7 seconds ahead of Leclerc.
34/53 Russell pitted and, now two seconds behind, slowed his pursuit of Perez, which could cause big problems for Red Bull.
33/53 Norris pits, takes his time, pits behind Verstappen. Piastri has the race to himself. Verstappen has to pit. Norris is unlucky, his mechanics mess up his right front.
32/53 Russell and Perez had to swap positions after Russell went off track and took the lead again, with Russell taking the lead again, and Perez not happy, but Mercedes is chasing Red Bull.
31/53 Leclerc closes in on the McLaren, Russell and Perez are now in a race, Norris makes a mistake at turn four and Piastri takes a big lead, while Ferrari's main man chases Norris.
30/53 Rookie Franco Colapinto in 16th place overtakes Pierre Gasly, who had never completed more than eight laps before.
29/53 The second stop is approaching quickly. Or is it really? The calculations are running.
28/53 Norris set the fastest lap.
27/53 Piastri set the fastest lap and Red Bull finished the pits behind McLaren. The Constructors' Championship is very close and as things stand it could end up being a draw.
26/53 The top three are well ahead of Carlos Sainz, waiting for the next pit stop, there's not much racing going on after the first turn, it's all down to strategy.
25/53 With Verstappen struggling a bit, will McLaren put Norris ahead? The Papaya rule means they are allowed to race each other.
24/53 He pitted just behind Verstappen after Perez had pitted, who was unhappy with his late pit stop. Piastri was back in the lead, with Norris in second. It was now a race between the two McLarens. Was it time to go for it?
23/53 Verstappen pits and goes on hard tyres, which means he pits again. He's 8th. What McLaren are discussing is the “papaya rule”. Coding. Broadsword is calling Danny Boy.
22/53 Radio discussion between McLaren: Should Norris follow team orders? They had this issue earlier in the season.
