Norris Leads Leclerc, Sainz in Italian GP FP2 at Monza

Lando Norris topped the second practice session at the Italian Grand Prix, narrowly beating Charles Leclerc by just 0.004 seconds, with Carlos Sainz close behind in third. The session was highly competitive, with the top 10 drivers separated by less than half a second, and 17 drivers within one second of Norris’s benchmark. Championship leader Oscar Piastri finished fourth but is under investigation for potentially leaving his pit box before being cleared to rejoin the session following a red flag caused by Kimi Antonelli's spin and gravel trap incident. Both McLaren drivers experienced mirror issues during the session, and there were several off-track moments for various drivers, including Leclerc and Piastri brushing gravel at key chicanes. Max Verstappen and Yuki Tsunoda showed solid pace for Red Bull, while Williams and Sauber also had strong showings in the tightly packed midfield.
