The 2021 Italian Grand Prix delivered a surprise winner in the form of McLaren's Daniel Ricciardo, but there's no change in the Drivers' Championship standings following the incident between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen.

Both drivers retired from the Grand Prix, meaning they failed to add to their point tally on Sunday, though the Red Bull driver leaves Italy having extended his lead to five points following his second-place finish in Saturday's Sprint Qualifying race.

Valtteri Bottas remains third overall following a strong weekend that saw him win the Sprint and make his way through the grid to finish third on Sunday.

As for the Constructors' Standings, Mercedes' lead over Red Bull now sits at 18 points as Formula 1 heads to Russia.

Meanwhile, McLaren, thanks to Ricciardo's win and Norris' second-place finish, have taken hold of third position. They sit 13.5 points up on Ferrari, who finished their home race in P4 and P6.
