McLaren’s Daniel Ricciardo won the Italian Grand Prix after a frightening crash between title rivals Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen. Both retired, beached in the gravel, meaning Verstappen remains five ahead of Hamilton in the title race. Following a rocket start by Ricciardo from second on the grid, Verstappen feel back to second place, as Hamilton battled with Norris for third after failing to gain a place. As the race appeared to settle down into a pattern of both title rivals being held up by a McLaren, Verstappen reacted to Ricciardo’s first pit stop by coming in and suffering a slow 10-second pit stop with what appeared to be a poorly positioned front-right wheel.
