Monza provided its usual dose of high-speed drama in Sunday's Formula 1 Gran Premio Heineken d'Italia 2017. However, there was also plenty happening off-track in the build up to the race weekend. Here's just some of the social media highlights...

Forza Fernando!

Rain stops play? Not a chance...
At least not when you're talking about an F1 paddock. When the poor weather halted qualifying for over two and half hours on Saturday, the teams and drivers found plenty else to do.

Ticket to ride
Poor Fernando Alonso is not getting much luck when it comes to reliability this season - in Monza even his drivers' parade car broke down. Fortunately Jolyon Palmer was on hand to help out - and his Renault team were quick to see the funny side! Things were less harmonious between the two men in the race itself.

Robert lays low
Former Grand Prix winner Robert Kubica was a welcome visitor to Monza, hanging out at Pirelli, rather than with Renault for whom he tested recently. If he thought that would mean less attention, the Pole was mistaken - there is no escaping Fernando Alonso!
