How Ferrari fell apart at its home race
Despite Sebastian Vettel's best efforts to put a brave face on it, there was no hiding the fact Ferrari was trounced at Monza. Was this just an ideal track for Mercedes, or a sign of things to come?
The loyal Tifosi whooped and cheered Sebastian Vettel on the Formula 1 podium at Monza, and booed dominant race winner Lewis Hamilton. They love Ferrari no matter what - even a Ferrari that got utterly pulverised by Mercedes at Ferrari's home race, while celebrating its 70th anniversary as a racing car constructor.
Mercedes finishing one-two, with Vettel a distant third, was a terrible result for Ferrari - at Monza of all places; its own turf!
