George Russell: Earns seventh podium
Russell finished third at the Italian Grand Prix F1 Race at Autodromo Nazionale Monza on Sunday.
Analysis:
Russell began the race in second place thanks to a grid penalty to Max Verstappen, but he held the position only until lap 4. He ran a fairly lonely race from there and picked up his fourth podium in his last five races. Russell has come roaring up the standings as a result, and is only 16 points behind Charles Leclerc for second place in the driver standings.
