India's Jehan Daruvala secured a podium finish in race 1 of the seventh round of the FIA F3 Championship here on Saturday.
Racing at the 5.793km historic high speed circuit of Monza, also known as the 'Temple of Speed', Jehan climbed from 10th to second, only to suffer issues denying the Indian a potential race win.
Electronics issues disabled Jehan's DRS, in turn preventing him from gaining top speed on the two vital long straights.
A bizarre qualifying session saw 17 racers, including all three racers in Jehan's Prema Racing Team, receiving penalties.
Christian Lundgaard topped the session, while Jehan finished fourth.
