Leclerc involved in huge crash as Ferrari suffer double DNF

Ferrari's miserable 2020 campaign continued at the Italian Grand Prix as both of the Scuderia's cars retired from the race.

Charles Leclerc, who was running in fourth after a restart following a safety car, suffered a massive crash at Parabolica, slamming into the barriers and causing the race to be red-flagged after 24 laps.

And on the sixth lap of the afternoon, Sebastian Vettel also retired from the race after sustaining a brake failure when running down in 17th.

The double retirement rounds off what has been a nightmare weekend for Ferrari, with neither driving finishing their home grand prix for the first time since 1995.

The initial safety car was deployed as Kevin Magnussen had parked his Haas right in front of the pitlane, leading to both Antonio Giovinazzi and Lewis Hamilton, who entered the pitlane after it was closed, to receive a 10-second stop-and-go penalty.

The race was subsequently delayed by 30 minutes as a result of the red flag.
