The F1 2021 season returns to Monza for the Italian Grand Prix where the reversal of fortunes has occurred to the best drivers fighting to survive on this race.
Moments before the reversal of fortunes happened, Valtteri Bottas won the F1 Sprint match in Monza, serving him as the polesitter of the Italian Grand Prix. As the race began, the title fight between Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton continues until both title rivals crashed themselves out of the race.
With the title rivals out of the race and a few others, the Italian Grand Prix became a free-for-all for all the drivers survived and in McLaren's case, it became a chance to end its winless streak courtesy of a certain Aussie who wants to end his winless streak.

The Aussie named Daniel Ricciardo ended the winless streak not just for him but for the McLaren F1 team after an impressive 1-2 finish with Lando Norris finished 2nd. Bottas was promoted to third place after Sergio Perez was slapped with a penalty that dropped him from third to fifth.
After Monza, the gap between Verstappen and Hamilton is at 226.5 vs. 221.5 while Bottas is at third with 141 points.
With Verstappen slapped with a three-place grid penalty after crashing Hamilton in Monza, will this be the chance Hamilton was looking for in the next race?
The next race will be at Sochi for the VTB Russian Grand Prix on the 26th of September, 2021.
