Pierre Gasly: Pit Lane Start

Gasly finished 16th in the Italian Grand Prix Formula 1 race at the Monza Circuit on Sunday afternoon.

Analysis:

The Alpine veteran would start the grand prix from 20th-place on pit lane due to power unit changes prior to the race. That would put him on the backfoot from the get-go. Gasly would opt for hard compound tyres to start and run most of the race on one set of tyres. He would race up to a high of P10 at one point during mid-race pit stops but would only fade back into the field on the old rubber as his tyres degraded. A lap 49 pit stop for fresh rubber would do nothing to mitigate Gasly's fall through the field and he would finish P16 at Monza.
