Report[]
Ilott repeated his previous year success in Monza qualifying, grabbing another pole.[1] But pit stop struggles left him without of chance of podium. The race was won by Schumacher, who was victorious in the feature race for the first time.[2] He was accompanied by Ghiotto and Lundgaard on podium.
In the sprint race Ticktum crossed the finish line first after dominating the race, but he was disqualified due to a lack of fuel. Ilott inherited the win and retook the lead in the championship from Shwartzman.[3][4]
