It's a triumph, a coronation, because it gave Ferrari that victory that had been missing at home for exactly 9 years, from Fernando Alonso in 2010.
“Mamma mia, mamma mia. Thanks for everything. You are the best,” shouted Charles over the radio. To complete the step of the podium, in the mad race that exalted the Ferrari people, the two rivals of Mercedes Bottas and Hamilton, with the latter however getting ever closer to the world title. But if the present still says Hamilton, the future is tinged more and more with red.
A Leclerc red though, given that the Vettel era seems to symbolically close today, with the rise of the 21-year-old from Monaco who also surpasses his teammate in the drivers' standings. Vettel on the other hand, due to an error, did not participate in the Ferrari party, finishing only 13th. "Today you are forgiven," said the team manager of the horse Mattia Binotto, with reference to the strategy that the Monegasque had disregarded on Saturday.
