Red Bull's Max Verstappen was second in the Italian sunshine, with Ferrari's Charles Leclerc a surprising third, and Bottas's world championship-leading teammate, Lewis Hamilton, only fourth.
It was the fifth time in a row that Bottas, who has so far won only the opening race in Austria in July, had been fastest in first practice. Bottas lapped with a best time of one minute 17.879 seconds, with Verstappen 0.048 slower around the scenic track in the hills north of Florence. Pierre Gasly, the surprise winner of that last race for Red Bull-owned AlphaTauri, was fifth fastest.
