Hello. Hello and a very warm welcome to the late breaking F1 podcast presented by Harry Eid, Sam Sage and me, Ben Hocking. Today reviewing the Italian Grand Prix, won by Max Verstappen, therefore breaking the record

for most consecutive victories in a row,

10 now, to be precise.

He was followed home by his teammate,

Sergio Perez, in second place,

but not before,

a pretty epic duel between him

and the two Ferrari guys

that finished third and fourth,

Carlos Seines finishing third.

For his first podium of the season after claiming pole position yesterday, Sam, that was low-key spicy. Low-key-spicy, more like a Vindaloon, mate. That wasn't just the corner, is it?

And everyone thought, I'm so glad that's done. Right, that's written off. We'd have to worry about that ever again now. You know, we'll all forget about it. Thank God for that. But Monser, it shows that Monser delivers pretty sporadic results, races that go a little bit astray, you don't necessarily know what's going to happen out front.

And weirdly enough... Monson delivers pretty sporadic results, races that go a little bit astray, you don't necessarily

know what's going to happen out front. And weirdly enough, on that Saturday, when Carla Science

a pretty massive stack considering the amount

of DRS and slip streaming heavy braking zones, which in theory lead to great overtakes.

Now, I commented on this while we were watching the race together, Harry, that I think they

nailed the length of the DRS zone around here at Monza.

It meant that cars got close enough, that going into that breaking zone, you had to have
