Formula 1’s Latest Rumours and Talk: Sebastian Vettel, Red Bull-Renault and More

Sebastian Vettel could only manage a second-place finish in Sunday's Italian Grand Prix, but his celebrations on the podium were reminiscent of a newly crowned world champion.

Just two years after being booed and jeered on the Monza podium, the Ferrari fans worshipped Vettel following his first race on Italian soil behind the wheel of a scarlet-red Formula One car.

And the adoration shown by the Tifosi has left Vettel in no doubt that the sport needs the Italian GP, with the German pleading with Bernie Ecclestone to protect Monza's place on the F1 calendar.

While Vettel was confirming his status as Ferrari's new hero, his former employers, Red Bull Racing, were left reflecting on another poor performance.

Daniel Ricciardo and Daniil Kvyat were lapped en route to eighth and 10th, respectively, at Monza, where Red Bull's lack of straight-line speed was—not for the first time this season—brutally exposed.

The four-time constructors' champions appear to have wriggled their way out of their commitment with engine supplier, but the team's plans have been dealt a blow with the news Mercedes is no longer interested in providing them with V6 turbo power units.

And just like Vettel a year ago, Red Bull may now have to turn to Ferrari to get themselves back on track.

After his retirement in Italy, Nico Rosberg's title challenge has well and truly gone off the rails, with the German now 53 points behind Lewis Hamilton.

To make matters worse, Mercedes have admitted that they were at fault for Rosberg's retirement having taken an unnecessary risk in the latter stages of the race.

Meanwhile, Jenson Button has spoken of his desire to be put out of his misery by McLaren-Honda, while Romain Grosjean may be set to end his long-standing relationship with Lotus.

Here's this week's roundup.
