F1 Nation: 2024 Italian F1 GP Review Podcast
In the vibrant atmosphere of Monza, Tom Clarkson is joined by 2012 GP2 champion Davide Valsecchi and the 2023 Formula 2 champion Théo Pourchaire to dissect an extraordinary Italian Grand Prix for F1 Nation. The race saw Charles Leclerc secure a thrilling victory in front of an ecstatic crowd of Tifosi.
The discussion delves into how Leclerc successfully executed a one-stop strategy and whether this might be his most impressive win in Formula 1 to date. The trio also speculates on what Ferrari's performance could look like for the remainder of the 2024 season.
Attention then shifts to McLaren's missed opportunity, as polesitter Lando Norris failed to convert his pole position into a win. The question arises: could McLaren have opted for a one-stop strategy as well? And would implementing team orders rather than adhering to their ‘Papaya Rules’ have yielded a better result?
Additionally, the conversation touches on Mercedes' surprising decision to promote 18-year-old Italian Kimi Antonelli to an F1 seat, replacing Lewis Hamilton in 2025. Tom, Davide, and Théo debate whether this move might be too soon for the young driver.
