On the first training day of Formula 1 Grand Prix of Italy, Lando Norris drove the fastest time in the second practice session. In the second training, Max Verstappen set the sixth time on the super -fast circuit of Monza.
Charles Leclerc finished second for Ferrari, for Carlos Sainz, Oscar Piastri and Lewis Hamilton. Saturday is the third free practice and qualification and Sunday at 3 p.m.
Nervous
During the second practice session, Verstappen complained about the radio about his car: “I lost the back. The car will be bumpy. It is very nervous with every light bump.” However, the backlog on Norris was less than 0.2 seconds and the Red Bull Racing car was good on the longer runs.
The training was stopped early when Kimi Antonelli spun the course in the second sector. His Mercedes was stuck in the gravel and had to be removed.
Many drivers made a trip through the gravel here and there. Norris and Verstappen also slid away in a fast round and went wide.
In the first free practice, Ferrari finished at the top of the times. Hamilton was the fastest for Leclerc. Verstappen noted the fourth time in the first practice session.
The session was stopped for a moment when Isack Hadjar put a load of gravel on the track. In the last minute George Russell stopped with a motor problem.
