Kimi Antonelli's win prompts Ferrari team orders debate Kimi Antonelli's impressive victory at the Italian Grand Prix has raised questions for Ferrari regarding team orders. The team's strategy moving forward, particularly in relation to their drivers, is under scrutiny as they prepare for upcoming races. RacingNews365 Mon 7 Sep · 14:00 UTC via Motorsport Week The Aston Martin Monza Nightmare: Alonso’s Pit-Lane Start, Stroll’s 100th Q1 Exit Aston Martin faced significant challenges during the qualifying session for the Italian Grand Prix at Monza. Lance Stroll marked a milestone with his 100th Q1 exit, while Fernando Alonso's participation was hindered by a serious power unit issue, forcing him to start the race from the pit lane. The team acknowledged that their performance was lacking, particularly in terms of raw speed, as Stroll qualified notably slower than competitors, including Cadillac, which is positioned at the back of the grid. Alonso highlighted the importance of power at Monza, contrasting it with other circuits where drivability improvements could be more beneficial.
Looking ahead, Alonso remains optimistic about the future, indicating that the team is already focusing on improvements for the 2027 season. He acknowledged the difficulties faced at Monza but emphasized the need to develop both the chassis and engine. Despite the disappointing results, Alonso paid homage to his early career mentor, Adrian Campos, showcasing a personal connection amidst the team's struggles. The overall sentiment suggests that Aston Martin is preparing for a challenging remainder of the season while aiming for better performance in the coming years.
