Italian GP: First win for Gasly

McLaren’s Spaniard driver Carlos Sainz finished second, with Racing Point’s Lance Stroll coming third. Mercedes’s Championship leader Lewis Hamilton finished seventh after starting on pole position and dropping to last. The victory was a first in F1 for Gasly and the first for a French driver since Olivier Panis in 1996. “I can’t realise what is happening now,” said Gasly after the triumph. “It was such a crazy race and the car was so fast. This team has done so much for me.”
