- The day began with all teams assembling in the pit lane ahead of FP1 to observe a minute of silence in memory of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, which was also marked at the Team’s UK base.
- Positive track running in FP1 saw George finish P3 and Lewis P4 as the W13 showed strong early pace.
- Lewis is utilising PU#4 here in Monza and will be taking a mandatory grid penalty on Sunday as a consequence, with his practice programme designed accordingly to target race pace.
- George managed P5 and Lewis P7 in FP2 with both drivers feeling less comfortable with the setup and balance than in the early session.
