The second week of the triple header is already proving to be busy. Today alone, three separate messages have been shared regarding an ongoing issue within Formula 1.

Charles Leclerc placed sixth at the Imola Grand Prix. He could have placed fifth if it wasn't for needing to give the position back to Alex Albon after a track limit skirmish. About this, he said, "I thought I was just in. Obviously, from the outside, it doesn't look so nice because there's gravel. But I'll look back at it.
