Lap 14: And the pitlane comes to life! The Ferrari driver comes out of the pit as Ricciardo charges down the straight but he just manages to stay ahead of the Australian. This is very easy work for the championship leader so far. This could be a disaster for the Mexican driver! Surely it's not more bad luck for the Italian team? Once Sainz pits ahead he'll be back into the podium places. Elsewhere, title front-runners Verstappen, Sergio Perez and Sainz start in P7, P13 and P18 respectively after taking penalties.

Max Verstappen produced a dominant performance at the Italian Grand Prix to deny Charles Leclerc victory in Monza and secure a fifth successive win.

When a VSC was triggered by Vettel stopping on lap 11, Ferrari brought Leclerc in, while Verstappen stayed out. With Leclerc forced to make a second stop, Verstappen held a near 20-second lead in the closing stages, before a technical failure for Daniel Ricciardo saw the McLaren stop out on track with five laps remaining, and the race end behind a Safety Car. Max Verstappen started from seventh after a grid penalty but was up to second after just five laps; Charles Leclerc was on pole but was unable to match Verstappen's pace; the Dutchman's fifth straight victory tightens his grip on the world championship

Charles Leclerc will rely more on his overall development with Ferrari in Formula 1 to win the 2022 Italian Grand Prix rather than lean on his 2019 victory ...

Just 0.021 seconds had split Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc in qualifying for the Dutch Grand Prix on Saturday. OPINION: From the moment talk of Red Bull teaming up with Porsche in Formula 1 started it sounded like a match made in heaven. But with Red Bull yet to show its full hand, the pace of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz could merely flatter Ferrari as the Italian Grand Prix enters its more critical stages...

Since the departure of Michael Massi as the FIA's Formula One race director, the double headed hydra that has replaced him has at times looked woeful.

One solution would be if a Safety Car is required with 5 or less laps to go, the race is red flagged. This includes how the new race operations centre in Geneva interacts with the on track officials to best m manage F1 races. Mercedes pressurised the FIA to sack Michael Massi because they disagreed with him refusing to end the 2021 world championship under the safety car, which would have been more unsatisfactory than it was today. Both FIA race directors Eduardo Freitas and Niels Wittich were reportedly in disagreement behind the scenes over the heavy rain that blighted the start of the Monaco Grand Prix. When Wittich realised his mistake he informed the Safety Car co-driver to signal Russell and the other cars in front of Verstappen should pass and complete another lap, but this was now lap 51. However, race control failed to instruct the co-driver of the safety car properly having informed him to pick up George Russell who at the time was in P3 on lap 48. “It is simply wrong and not great for the sport, Mattia added. “Finishing behind the safety car is never great. The safety car displays a green light when cars are allowed to pass, but Russell noted it was not on. The other option open to Wittich was to decide with just 5 laps remaining, to red flag the race – order the cars to the grid for a standing restart. Yet Ted Kravitz of Sky believed it was a choice they had in the rule book. On lap 47 of 53 Daniel Ricciardo parked his car between the two Lesmo corners and race control dithered for some time before deploying the safety car.

Max Verstappen pulled clear at the top of the drivers' championship as he looks to seal a second title.

[Lewis Hamilton](https://www.theguardian.com/sport/lewis-hamilton), who drove well to claim fifth from 19th on the grid, a wry smile, having been on the end of similar himself in Italy and indeed from Verstappen’s fans. The pace was telling right up until a late safety car was called as Daniel Ricciardo’s stricken McLaren was removed from the track. “As a season as a whole there have been mistakes and we need to get better,” said Leclerc. Of late their execution has been so lacking that the Ferrari chief executive, John Elkann, was moved to insist the team must eliminate their errors The depiction of Ferrari engineers as clowns on Twitter would doubtless rile the most placid soul at the Scuderia and Elkann’s admonishments seemed to have an affect. Their only issue was that it was all to no avail. From wherever he proceeds on the grid the expectation is that sooner rather than later he will put his nose in front and then show only a clean pair of heels. He has 11 wins this year, and the major F1 record of Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel’s shared achievement of 13 wins in a season is well within his compass. The defence of his title is all but done. Moreover, Verstappen also now is beginning to enjoy the full gamut of experiences a multiple world champion might expect. The Red Bull team principal, Christian Horner, noted that the victory had been possible with a car that was demonstrably the quickest on track in Monza. The Italian Grand Prix was another masterclass of a win from High downforce, low downforce, Verstappen can chuck this beast at anything and it positively laps it up.

“But then we need to change the regulations.” “We don’t want to win a race under a safety car,” he said. “If one is not happy with the regulations, and you want to have a big bang show and two laps of racing and mayhem, I’m absolutely up for it,” he said. “The FIA has been caught sleeping, maybe they are not yet ready to deal with these situations.” “There are rules and whether I’m Abu Dhabi traumatised or not, these rules have been followed to the dot today.” “This time, they followed the rules,” he said.

De Vries endured a strong maiden race, running inside the points for much of the event before crossing the finish line in ninth, behind the Safety Car.

De Vries is alleged to have driven “erratically” towards the end of the race, and will now face the stewards. His performance on the track on Sunday makes for a strong case, however his hard work may well come undone if the stewards opt to hand him a time penalty. Nyck de Vries is in danger of losing his ninth place result at Monza after being summoned post-race to see the stewards.

He had been complaining for a while about a lack of power and it seems Alpine made the decision that retiring the car was the only resort. Lap 43: Perez is into the pit lane for a new set of softs as Red Bull make the call that his current hard tyres won't last until the end of this race. The race finishes behind the safety car due to Ricciardo's late retirement as the Dutch driver claims his fifth race victory in succession. Lap 34: Verstappen leads the Italian Grand Prix again as Leclerc pits!! The veteran pulls into the pit lane and retires from this race. The Australian driver is now down to P8. He rejoins the race just behind teammate Ricciardo but Gasly sweeps around the outside to take P7.

Coming home in P2, unable to repeat his memorable home win for the Scuderia in 2019, Leclerc said: "Overall, I think the pace wasn’t bad today. But still we have shown a good pace, so I’m sure we can win some other races." Well I think so, and we will work for that.

Having led the early stages, Leclerc was the first of the front-runners to pit under a Virtual Safety Car, which ended as he trundled down the pit lane – the Monegasque committing to a two-stop strategy while Verstappen opted for one.
