Full results FP1: Mercedes fastest in varied top five

The first free practice session at Mugello is over without major incidents. The circuit that is on the F1 calendar for the first time is new, unknown territory for many drivers in an F1 car. Now that the first session is over, we can see the first differences between the teams.

The Mercedes are as expected very fast, as Valtteri Bottas notched the fastest time with Max Verstappen just behind. Somewhat surprisingly we see Charles Leclerc back in third position and Lewis Hamilton is only in fourth. The top five was completed by last weekend's winner Pierre Gasly.
