The pole position series Lewis Hamilton continued in Monza in Italy, with a dominated eleventh session in front of both Ferrari by Kimi Räikkönen and Sebastian Vettel. However, the reigning World Champion thought he would do better.

“In terms of laps, it was good, but not perfect. My qualifying lap was Spa definitely better. But the car performed well all weekend and the team was fantastic, as always. Being on pole is always a great feeling, but there is a long distance to turn 1 and Ferrari are strong at the start.

Last year I didn't get off to a good start and I had to fight so nothing is done yet. We demonstrated a strong pace during our simulations on the long runs, which we hope to maintain tomorrow in the race. »

But in addition to the Ferrari threat, the Briton must also think about the mishap that happened to Nico Rosberg in free practice 3 this morning, which led to Mercedes to reassemble an older Power Unit on the German's W06 Hybrid. “I don’t know what the problem was, but I’m not worried about tomorrow. » Hamilton said

The Italian Grand Prix will start tomorrow at 14 p.m., and will be to follow live on our website. Photos from the transalpine weekend can be viewed here.
