Against all odds, Ferrari's Charles Leclerc scored a momentous victory in the Pirelli Italian GP.  McLaren-Mercedes appeared to have the race on a plate after seizing the front row in qualifying but  an intra-team battle and resultant crazy mid-race pace played havoc with the McLarens' hard-compound Pirelli left-front tyres.  Forced to stop twice, the McLaren drivers could do nothing about the pace, consistency and tyre management of Leclerc, who ran the correct one-stop strategy as predicted by the race's sponsor.  Pole-sitter Lando Norris, what's more, was lucky to survive the first lap after his team-mate, Oscar Piastri, audaciously passed him on the outside into the second chicane.  Norris swerved further to the inside to avoid any collision - and lost position not only to Piastri but also to Leclerc. Beginning with untimed practice on Friday morning, Peter Windsor looks back at an epic three days at the historic Monza Autodromo.
