P1racenews AI automatic summary:
It was a lonely Italian GP for Oscar Piastri but not without its controversy!
Oscar Piastri admitted to struggling at the start of the Italian Grand Prix but found great pace later on, which concerned him. He began in third but was overtaken by Charles Leclerc, who had a strong start. Despite performing two impressive overtakes on Leclerc, Piastri settled for third and couldn’t catch up to Norris and Verstappen. Piastri’s championship lead has decreased to 31 points as a result. He had a difficult race but was satisfied with the points earned. McLaren’s strategic decision to pit him first temporarily placed Piastri ahead of Norris, although he was later instructed to return the position, which he complied with.
