Fans captured video of several highlights of the Italian Grand Prix including Daniil Kvyat’s dramatic brake failure and Lewis Hamilton’s first pass of the day.
Even the marshals had their cameras out to film the action. Here’s a selection of the best footage.

That last one is about two paces back from where I was stood. Very thankful to see this video! I can genuinely say I’ve accomplished a life-long dream. How lucky am I?

I can’t believe FOM didn’t show us that brake failure! And yet they wonder why people are switching off. When something dramatic happens, they don’t even show it!

Hamilton’s only pass of the day. Massa let him by (it’s not 2011 anymore) and Rosberg went off track for his other overtake.
And yet people still voted for him as DOTW?

If only Hamilton could have made more overtakes and been in 0th place…
There were no more cars to overtake, maybe that’s part of the reason he was voted DOTW don’t you think?

No @john-h, I don’t agree that is a valid reason to vote Hamilton as DOTW.
In previous seasons Vettel would disappear into the distance and not get DOTW because he was in a dominant car. As Keith and others have previously shown, this years Mercedes is far and away more dominant than anything Vettel ever had. The Mercedes also has a relatively much more powerful engine and great top speed, so Hamilton and Rosberg can pass people on the straights, which is an advantage that Vettel never had.
So I cannot see the logic that if Hamilton wins he should automatically get DOTW. Can agree he did better at Monza than Rosberg but apart from that I don’t think he did anything special compared to half a dozen other drivers who actually had to fight for position.

Fair enough. I’d argue that Vettel should have won more dotw though @juan-fanger

Here’s a cool fan video of Rosberg’s mistake into turn 1 and Hamilton capitalising from it. Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUo1xE5d32o
Who would’ve thought the Tifosi would be cheering for Ham!

The video also shows Alonso’s retirement.
