Saturday’s Italian Grand Prix qualifying session brought plenty of chaos in more ways than one for Formula One fans.
Charles Leclerc took pole for Ferrari’s home race as the passionate tifosi fans roared from the stands. Behind him, Max Verstappen and Carlos Sainz recorded the second and third fastest laps, respectively, but the Red Bull and Ferrari drivers will not be starting near the top of the grid.
Verstappen and Sainz are among the nine total F1 drivers who face grid drops, and with almost a majority of the field having penalties, chaos ensued as teams awaited to see where their drivers would line up for Sunday’s race.
