George Russell started strong from P4 on the grid, defending admirably against Perez. He battled with strength and determination throughout the race to maintain the position and finished in P5, despite the five-second penalty. Lewis Hamilton ran an offsetting strategy with hard tyres from take-off and climbed from 10th position to 6th, gaining ground after the swap to medium tyres at half distance. The Mercedes AMG team had the third-fastest car in the field behind Red Bull and Ferrari. An excellent performance from both drivers - Bring on Singapore. #F1 #PETRONAS #Syntium PETRONAS MOTORSPORTS Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team #ItalianGP #MonzaGP
