Carlos Sainz blames marshals for Monza safety car mess as they were "too slow"

Carlos Sainz asserted more could have been done to move Daniel Ricciardo's car so racing could resume in the final stages of the Italian Grand Prix.

The McLaren racer's mechanical problem saw him pull over on the track on lap 47, sparking a safety car with just six laps remaining. And it proved to be the end of the competitive action, with Max Verstappen winning without fear of challenge from Charles Leclerc behind him.

Predictably, that did not go down too well with the home fans, who were cheering for a Ferrari win. More than anything, many were frustrated to see what could have been an exciting climax take place behind a safety car, with the race completely neutralised.
