Lewis Hamilton has finally done it! He has officially succeeded Michael Schumacher as the record holder of the most pole positions after coming out on top in a damp and chaotic qualifying session in Monza. The real big surprises were Lance Stroll and Esteban Ocon who qualified 4th and 5th respectively but will move up the order, courtesy penalties for both Red Bulls. Twitter went into overdrive during the entire session, here are some of the best ones.
