I don't think many expected Ferrari to suddenly be able to win, but we certainly put up a very good fight today.
I think the team did everything they could to achieve a good result at their home race, at least we manage to take pole position.
Charles said that he was loosing 0.3-0.4 sec every lap to Perez at Parabolica’s entry.
And mini sectors kinda confirming it.
Right After Ascari:
Sainz
Perez +0.618
Leclerc +0.758
After entry of Parabolica
Sainz
Perez +0.288
Leclerc +0.948
Leclerc lost 0.2 sec in total to Perez despite having Double Tow+Skinnier rear wing within a Straight and Parabolica’s entry.
Crazy.
I'm relieved we managed to get P3/4 and both drivers drove great races, Carlos deserved his podium and DOTD, but Charles was still not giving up and they were lucky to avoid a couple of DNFs. Good effort from the team and Monza looked fabulous, even better if we'd had two on the podium!
Constructor championship
2.Mercedes 273 pts
3.Ferrari 228 pts
4.Aston 217 pts
Our gap to P2 is still 45 points and AM is only 11 points behind . If next race won't go well we could have been easily down to P4 again .
No it's not coming yet
No rear end traction this filtersr all the way through the current spec hence poor performance on high down force circuits..Fix this with next year's car and ferrari will be at the pointy end.Mighty effort from the boys.P3 in constructors now.
Good points haul from today's race.
Hero's come and go, but legends never die!

According to reports by ANSA, Carlos Sainz fresh from the podium in Monza, had left the hotel where he was staying in the center of Milan and was approached by three people who surrounded him, and they snatched his watch.
Sainz is at the police station in Milan filing a complaint. The report suggest that the three people involved have been arrested.
Sainz did not give up and began to chase the robbers together with other people who were on the street and they obviously recognized the driver. The robbers were then stopped by police officers who took them to the police station.
It's not how start but how you finish.
There is a reason Carlos was voted driver of the day, he deserved the Monza podium, had overall better weekend than Charles. I thought we maximized our weekend with P3 & P4, look forward to Singapore
