There were three drivers who reaped rewards after the Italian Grand Prix, starting with Valtteri Bottas. The Williams driver just missed out on a podium finish at Monza, but still picked up enough points to jump Fernando Alonso in the standings - the Ferrari driver having retired from the race.
Jenson Button jumped ahead of Nico Hülkenberg with two points difference between the two. However, the other Force India of Sergio Pérez leapfrogged the other McLaren of Kevin Magnussen with just a single point between them.
