    Formula 1: Norris Goes Fastest In Final Practice Session Ahead Of Monza Qualifier

    By IANS News September 06, 2025 • 18:12 PM View: 379
    Italian Grand Prix: Lando Norris topped the timesheets in the final practice session at Monza ahead of the Italian Grand Prix, posting a best lap of 1m 19.331s. Charles Leclerc thrilled the home Tifosi by finishing second, just 0.021s off the McLaren driver, while Norris’ team mate Oscar Piastri claimed third, 0.165s adrift.

    The session began slowly, with most drivers spending the opening 10 minutes performing tyre scrubbing on hard compounds. Focus quickly shifted to Qualifying simulations as the track evolved. Lewis Hamilton, carrying a five-place grid penalty from last weekend, was among several drivers—alongside Norris, Ollie Bearman, Gabriel Bortoleto, and Carlos Sainz—to run wide at Turn 1 due to tailwind conditions.

    Racing Bulls driver Isack Hadjar was the first to switch to soft tyres but couldn't better team mate Yuki Tsunoda’s earlier time of 1m 20.775s on hards. Max Verstappen later surged ahead with a 1m 20.040s on softs before improving to 1m 19.688s, although his lap was hampered by a wheel-to-wheel moment with Esteban Ocon during preparation laps.
