Valtteri Bottas will start last for the Italian Grand Prix on Sunday, even though he finished first in the F1 Sprint – thanks to a bevy of grid penalties accrued for the new power unit components he took this weekend. But despite that, the Mercedes driver still vowed to push for a podium at Monza.

Bottas finished and therefore started first for the Sprint, but it became clear on Friday that as Mercedes fitted a new engine to his W12, thus exceeding his allocation of parts.
