Zandvoort delivered a cracker of a race last time our with plenty of incidents and a surprise first podium finish for Isack Hadjar. An engine failure for Lando Norris saw him lose 18 points in the chase for the championship to wrest the lead from his teammate Oscar Piastri. Monza was the scene last season of a historic heist by Ferrari, who managed to snatch victory from McLaren with a good strategy call. Lewis Hamilton gets his first Monza race as a Ferrari driver, will the Tifosi help turn his season around? We will only find out at the ITALIAN GRAND PRIX!

I dunno why, but the white part on top just reminds me of those vinyl "landau" roofs that town cars used to have back in the '70s and '80s.

They say it's to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Niki Lauda's first championship. I think they just added the white section to make the main HP logo less jarring and ugly on the car.

Lots of lovely details on it, the driver names are class, the hubs painted like the '75 Ferrari, beautiful.
 
This FP1 session is dangerous. Leclerc and Ferrari are fastest. They are giving the Tifosi and I hope again.

Well, last season Leclerc finished 14th at Silverstone, 4th in Hungary and 3rd in Belgium, he then went on to win the Italian GP. He's had those same finishing positions this season, which can mean only one thing..
 
I know fuel loads, traffic, energy modes etc, but, if it is real pace then they're half a second quicker than RB Max Racing.

Definitely my favorite special livery of the 2025 championship so far (btw I agree with you concerning the HP logo).

I just had to recreate it in the game!

McLaren and the Willies closed the gap, but Ferrari still up around the front in FP2. The dream is alive.

Hopefully it at least means a competitive race. Papaya dominance is great (for a long time fan) but also boring.

From what I can tell so far, it could be any one of those drivers from Ferrari, Mclaren and Max to win and be on the podium for this GP. I think even with Lewis' penalty, he might still have shot at a podium if everything goes well for him. Unsure if he can win without a safety car or some serious pace advantage which could still be a tall order.

The Williams look very competitive but I don't think they can stay in front of those 3 teams unless it's Yuki in the other red Bull. If the Merc don't get their act together, the Williams might seriously be even faster than them too. Even Sauber is impressing with their straight line speed.

I'm honestly a bit intrigued for this race this weekend. Hopefully it will be more entertaining than Zandvoort

At least it’s two McLarens. Could be worse. One Red Bull was enough.
 
Qualifying lap record - 1:18.887 (Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes-AMG W11, 2020)
2025 FP3 fastest lap - 1:19.331 (Lando Norris)
2025 FP2 fastest lap - 1:19.878 (Lando Norris)

🤔
 
I thought Mercedes were no where but they've made the biggest improvements out of the top teams. They are also in contention for pole.

And Verstappen of all people just blows that record out of the water.

And they're way off in Q3...

Didn't expect Max to be able to grab this
 
I honestly didn't think Max would get that one. I had already count him out cause I didn't think he would be able to beat the McLarens.
 
Unbelievable. Max really is one of the GOAT already. I‘d put him on the same level as Schumacher and Senna.
 
That has to be a disappointing qualifying result for Ferrari all things considered cause I'm sure they were probably hoping for a lot more. Lewis will need some serious luck tomorrow to get nowhere near the podium with his penalty.
 
I know they alternate each week, but lucky Lando to be getting the tow from his teammate this week when it really matters. Rescued him in Q2, got him on the front row in Q3

Limp flacid Willies. Very disappointing.
 
They've got to sort this shocking TV coverage out, when Verstappen went fastest we were watching people clapping in the garage. It's either that or the TV director looking at someone's pretty other half instead of cars in action.
