Hamilton received a five-place grid penalty for not slowing enough under double-waved yellow flags at the Dutch Grand Prix, adding challenge to his first Monza race with Ferrari.

- With fifteen races complete, observers note Lewis Hamilton, age 40, has struggled to find rhythm with Ferrari, and Monza could reveal if this year's lack of podiums is a pattern.
