Leclerc fastest in rainy Monza, collisions of Raikkonen and Perez

Charles leclerc [Ferrari] was fastest in the first free training session before the Italian GP at the Monza race track. Monachan was faster than Carlos Sainz [Mclaren] in changeable weather for a good three tenths of a second, with Lando Norris in third at McLaren.

The racers were expecting rainy weather at the Monza racetrack and the track was heavily soaked after the morning rainfall. The first victim of the difficult situation was Kimi Raikkonen, who lost his rear car in Parabolica and collided with a guardrail. The Finnish exited the car unharmed and his training was interrupted for a few minutes.

Soon after, we saw a new red flag, as in accelerating from the Ascari variant, the rear of the car lost to Sergio Perez and, like Raikkonen, collided with the rear in a protective enclosure.

A few minutes before the finish, the track was sufficiently dry to allow racers to ride on it with dry track tires. With a medium hard version of Pirelli tires, Charles Leclerc set time 1: 23. 905 and thus overtook both Mclaren team runners-up in 2nd and 3rd

Lewis Hamilton [Mercedes] came in the top three with eight tenths and Alexander Albon [Red Bull] in fifth.

Daniil Kvyat [Toro Rosso] placed sixth in the first free practice, and Max Verstappen [Red Bull] placed seventh

Sebastian Vettel [Ferrari] took eighth place, with Valtteri Bottas [Mercedes] and Pierre Gasly [Toro Rosso] top ten.
