2024 F1 Italian Grand Prix session timings and preview

Ferrari will be in the spotlight in Italy, as thousands of tifosi cheer for the Prancing Horse.

The Maranello-based squad has found the going tough in recent races, but Charles Leclerc did score a morale-boosting podium finish at the Dutch Grand Prix just last weekend.

The focus will also be on McLaren and Red Bull's battle at the front after Lando Norris claimed a dominant 23s victory at Zandvoort to illustrate the widening gap between the MCL30 and the RB20.
