    McLaren's Oscar Piastri, who finished third at the Italian Grand Prix: "Difficult beginning, definitely I think, not my best first couple of laps. We seemed to have good pace the first couple of laps compared to Charles, I could get past. It was a pretty lonely race from there.

    "Just struggled a bit through the first part of the race, the car wasn't exactly how I liked, once the tyres went away, it actually felt a bit better which is never a great sign. Happy with the points and I'll take it."

    On soft tyres at the end and team orders: "We went so long so the soft tyres seemed like a good tyre to put on. We were staying out for safety cars if we got any. A little 'inchident' at the end but it's ok."

    "A lot of things to learn from this weekend, so happy going forwards and we will try and be stronger next week."

    'Inchident' is a reference to the viral racing kart video of Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen, which Leclerc called an 'inchident'.

    "It was a tricky one as it was one of the few weekends where we're just a bit slow but I enjoyed it.

    On his late slow pit stop: "I have no idea. I felt like I was there for quite a long time. Every now and then we make mistakes as a team and this was one of them.

    On the championship battle: "I did everything I could today, I couldn’t do a lot more. I tried to fight against Max. We had a good race but he came out on top.

    "I just need to keep doing what I'm doing."

    Red Bull’s Max Verstappen wins the Italian Grand Prix. He said: "It was a great day for us, we were flying and that the car for me was really enjoyable and I could manage the pace quite well throughout that first stint.

    "We pitted at the right time and the hard tyres at the end you can push a bit more because they are more resilient.

    "A fantastic execution by everyone and the whole team, I think the whole weekend we were on it and it’s super enjoyable to win here."

    On the start: "I could see that the pace was good but I just needed to settle in, there was quite a lot of fighting going on but I could see the pace was there and quite quickly we were back in the lead."

    On chances to win in the future: "We will try for sure, we will go step by step and race by race, but for us this was an unbelievable weekend."

    Max Verstappen climbs onto his car and punches the air after a memorable weekend at Monza. Next up, it's the tifosi's turn to head onto the track and leg it down to the podium. There's no Ferrari driver this year, but that hasn't stopped the enthusiasm to get a good spot to see the celebrations.

    The big bottle of champagne now has Verstappen's signature on it, so we should get to hear what the top trio made of that race. Will Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri mention the place swap?

    Jack: Piastri complaining, Yet Hungary last year was fine was it?

    Anon: Re swap. See Hungary last year when Norris was ahead of piastri and gave place back

    Erin: Genuinely hilarious. McLaren: cars are free to race. Also McLaren: Oscar let lando past please!

    Craig: That might be interesting come the end of the season, and Norris wins by less the points difference of 2nd and 3rd.

    Kimi Antonelli has been given a five-second time penalty for driving eratically, but luckily for the Italian teenager, he won't lose out to Isack Hadjar, who is in 10th spot.

    Max Verstappen is on his way to another victory to add to his career tally, and the second win this season inn Italy.

    Oscar Piastri was saying on the radio that he "doesn't get it" why he was asked to move aside because a pit stop is still racing.

    Mentality and team work is all when it comes to McLaren, they are so fair in their way of tackling this season, it seems almost clear-cut.

    Lap 52/53

    The gap out in front for Max Verstappen is a very comfortable 19 seconds. He clocked the fastest lap in F1 history yesterday and he's easing to his third victory of the campaign from pole position at Monza today.

    Isack Hadjar, who started in the pit lane, has made it up into the points in 10th place. But he may get the chance to move further up the order...

    Steffi Ede: Exactly the right thing for McLaren (and Piastri) to do. If they'd left it like that they may as well have chucked a grenade into the middle of the garage.

    Jeremiah: That's strange of McLaren to give Team Orders to Oscar, then after Norris pass go on to say "free to race"! It is giving on one hand and also trying to play safe!

    I would love to hear what McLaren said to Oscar Piastri and what his response was if there was one, but they're trying to play it fair between the two.

    Engineer: "Norris and Piastri have swapped places Max."

    Verstappen: "Ha! Just because he had a slow stop?"
