After 14 races in the Formula 1 calendar, this is the hierarchical order that takes into account each of the competitions and that is why it is a rise and fall in qualifications and emotions.
(Remember that all F1 is in Star +)
1 (1) Max Verstappen | Red Bull – He had bad luck in the race, but qualified third, he was second in the sprint. Another abandonment is not enough to get him off the top.
2 (2) Lewis Hamilton | Mercedes – The weekend was twisted at the start of the sprint qualifying, otherwise he was very likely to escape the race, so he wouldn’t have finished with half of Verstappen’s interlocutory mounted on his.
3 (4) Lando Norris | McLaren – Lant is a rider’s piece and was finally able to get back on the podium. His work could well put him in the top two.
4 (5) Valtteri Bottas | Mercedes – Good weekend for the Finnish driver: he won the pole for the Sprint, which he also won, both with force and then, he came back last on the podium in Monza.
5 (7) Charles Leclerc | Ferrari – Calladet, but in Monza he worked as well as his Ferrari left him.
6 (10) Sergio Checo Pérez | Red Bull – He rubbed the podium and that’s good, but Czech continues to complicate his life on Saturdays, or this time it was Friday. Being fast on a lap is still the issue to improve.
7 (3) Fernando Alonso | Alpine – Craftsman work in the middle of the table, points and overtaking.
8 (13) Daniel Ricciardo | McLaren – The podium surprised the most famous smile on the grid. Perfect weekend for the Australian. This victory fills him with confidence for the rest of the season.
9 (9) Carlos Sainz | Ferrari – Carles did not have the rhythm of Leclerc and collided again in practice.
10 (6) George Russell | Williams – The young Briton again delivered points. It wasn’t his most glorious weekend but taking advantage of what others leave is also part of this business.

The Italian GP was an amazing race that was starred by the clash of Verstappen and Hamilton, plus a new penalty on Checo Perez caused the Mexican to stay off the podium.
11 (8) Pierre Gasly | AlphaTauri – He qualified very well, sixth, but then lost the car in the Sprint and dropped out in the first lap.
12 (11) Esteban Ocon | Alpine – The act suffered at Monza, they just weren’t up to par with other competitors but in the end, like Russell for example, they had consistency and moved away from the problems and mistakes to take what others left behind.
13 (14) Nicholas Latifi | Williams – He has found consistency, though now he left empty-handed.
14 (15) Antonio Giovinazzi | Alfa Romeo – ‘Tonio’ showed off in front of the Italians. Qualifying, Sprint, all right, but then, when it came to looking for points, he failed in the GP start. Too bad it will be weird for it to boot so high again.
15 (12) Sebastian Vettel | Aston Martin – He has a magnet because they hit him in a race or in any session. It happens to good people.
16 (16) Lance Stroll | Aston Martin – Solid seventh place for Lance. He needed a result like this to show that he can take the reins of the team and not just depend on what the veteran does.
17 (17) Yuki Tsunoda | AlphaTauri – Nightmare in Monza, we could headline Yuki’s weekend.
18 (19) Mick Schumacher | Haas F1 – He was not without problems, but he accumulated the miles of the GP on an important track.
19 (18) Kimi Raikkonen | Alfa Romeo – From his home, with leave for COVID, I bet he didn’t even see the race.
20 (20) Nikita Mazepin | Haas F1 – It makes the queue of races a tense affair, in addition it had to be withdrawn.
21 (21) Robert Kubica | Alfa Romeo – Let’s put it in perspective: the Pole is a substitute in a generation of very demanding F1 cars. It’s not fair to make a comparison against the ‘Gio’ weekend that already has many miles behind the wheel of these fast, long monsters.
