Comment of the day
Jamey shared some excellent tips for taking pictures at Monza yesterday. But not everyone like taking a camera with them to races, as Neil explains:
It?s impossible to enjoy the action when you are staring down the lens of a camera. Put it down and make the most of what you paid for rather than taking photos of cars there are already hundreds of photos of.
Just my opinion, as an F1 fan.

Jack Brabham claimed his third world championship 45 years ago today at Monza.
Brabham only made it eight laps into the race before an engine failure put him out. But championship rival John Surtees also dropped out and that confirmed Brabham as the first ? and so far only ? driver to win the championship in his own car.
