F1 Results Today: Verstappen struggles AGAIN as Ferrari strong at home

Saturday's final practice session for the Italian Grand Prix was almost singularly uneventful, with teams just working to put in sensible runs without the disruption caused by a pair of red flags on Friday.

Qualifying looks set to be a humdinger of a session, with Mercedes putting their cars first and second on the timing boards in FP3 but both Ferraris and the McLarens also showing strong pace.

Max Verstappen, however, struggled with turn-in once again as he failed to match some of his outside title rivals.

Kevin Magnussen brought out a red flag in FP2 at Monza on Friday afternoon, spinning off at the second Lesmo corner and burying his Haas in the wall.

The timing of the Dane's crash meant that a number of drivers didn't get a representative qualifying simulation, choosing instead to come out and do race runs in the final 20 minutes once the green flag flew again.

The slightly truncated running saw Daniel Ricciardo not only leading his VCARB team-mate Yuki Tsunoda, but also ahead of Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez as he fights for his F1 life – despite not having the full suite of upgrades provided to Tsunoda.

Kimi Antonelli was the focus in FP1 on Friday afternoon, making one of the most-hyped Formula 1 debuts in years – only for him to bring out a red flag with a massive crash just ten minutes into the session.

Antonelli was in George Russell's car for the practice session, having finally been allowed to obtain his superlicense after turning 18 years old.

The Italian was flying around the famous parabolica corner when he lost control of the car, spinning off into the barriers at high speed and clambering out of the wrecked car to head off to the medical centre.

Antonelli wasn't the only driver jumping into an unfamiliar car on Friday though, with Franco Colapinto replacing Logan Sargeant at Williams for the rest of the season. Colapinto's hour on track went somewhat better than Antonelli's – he made it the full hour, for one thing – but he went off at the exact same spot at the Italian in the dying seconds of the session, just saving it from the wall.
