    Mercedes continue to lead the charge in the constructors' championship with George Russell's sprint win in the Netherlands and Kimi Antonelli's six wins this season bolstering their points tally.

    McLaren have crept into the picture somewhat by virtue of Lando Norris' successive race wins but Ferrari remain in second place and are less than 100 points behind Mercedes.

    Alpine, following Friday's ruling on the Monaco Grand Prix, have a slightly reduced points tally.

    Meanwhile Cadillac are still to score a point in their first season in Formula 1.

  3. Antonelli leads the waypublished at 13:03 BST

    Kimi Antonelli leads by 59 points over joint second-placed drivers George Russell and Lewis Hamilton.

    Russell, who led the final two practice sessions and will line up P2 for today's race, is currently second in the standings by virtue of his two wins this season.

    Lando Norris, who strung together back-to-back wins thanks to his triumph in the Netherlands, is 83 points behind but is rapidly chasing the leading pack.

    Pole sitter Pierre Gasly is 10th in the standings.

    Oh it's the end of summer alright. But that doesn't mean the temperatures will be anything other than scorching for today's Italian Grand Prix.

    Pierre Gasly stunned the grid with a belter of a lap to take pole position for today's race - the first time a Frenchman has taken pole position at Monza since Jean Alesi achieved the feat in 1997.

    But with championship leader Kimi Antonelli starting from the back of the grid due to an engine penalty, can George Russell put his foot to the floor from P2 and gain some ground on his Mercedes team-mate's lead?

    And what of the rest of the pack? Ferrari certainly lost pace but could still be in the mix. Likewise McLaren and Max Verstappen will be knocking on the door.
