F1 will return to the classic venue of the Italian GP this weekend for the 16th round of racing at the Monza track.
Formula 1 will travel to Monza for the 16th round of racing at the Italian GP where McLaren’s Daniel Ricciardo emerged victorious last year.
The Italian GP would be the last race of the triple-header after the summer weekend. Red Bull’s Max Verstappen has taken the dominance in the dominance standings by winning the last four races and creating a 109-point lead over his rival Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc.
While Red bull will yet again look forward to gaining more advantage out of its dominance, Ferrari seems to face yet another harsh weekend. The Italian giants do not seem to have found a solution to compete with the RB18’s straight-line speed.
However, something that might work for the Scuderia is the changing weather conditions. Rain and thunderstorms are forecasted from Wednesday to Saturday in Monza.
