Carlos Alcaraz and Matteo Berrettini both helped shake off second-round losses at the US Open on Sunday when they attended the Italian Grand Prix at Monza.
Both stars are fans of Formula 1 and had a nice time watching the race, which Charles Leclerc won in front of his team’s home fans.

A Spanish-speaking reporter for DAZN caught up with Alcaraz before the race.
“Very well, very well,” Alcaraz said in Spanish of his love for the sport. “The truth is, we were able to come here to Formula 1. The truth is, for me, it’s a pleasure, and we are going to enjoy it.”
The reporter asked: “And of course, supporting our own, right?”
Alcaraz replied: “Of course, always supporting our own.”
There are two Spanish drivers in Formula 1: Fernando Alonso and Carlos Sainz, who finished 11th and fourth, respectively.
At the US Open, Alcaraz fell in a stunning defeat to Botic van de Zandschulp and Berrettini lost to Taylor Fritz.
