Monza, the Temple of Speed, 1 of only 4 track from the original Calendar that we still race and she is still the fastest F1 Track on the planet!!! The home of the Scuderia both Ferrari & Alpha Tauri, 2 teams that despite good 2022 seasons, 2023 has been disappointing and the Tifosi for both are hoping for better luck at their home Grand Prix. Will Max make it 10 in a row at the Mighty Monza? Well this is not his favourite track, before he Won the race last year his highest finish was 5th and he didn't finish the race in 2020 or 2021 so if there was a race he may not win, my bet is on this one!!

Random Facts 

  • Ferrari have 19 wins @ Monza, that the most wins of any team at an track on the Calendar.
  • Senna & Hamilton are the only drivers to have achieved a Grand Slam ( Pole, lead every lap and win) at Monza. Senna did it in 1990 and Hamilton in 2015 but Hamilton also set the fastest time in all 3 Practice sessions as well. 
  • Monza boasts the smallest win margin ever in Formula 1, in 1971 Peter Gethin won the race by 0.01 seconds. 
  • In 1968 only 6 cars finished the Grand Prix at Monza 
  • 2005 was the first time every car that started finished a Grand Prix in Monza

  • 19th place has scored points 3 times in the last 4 races.
Monza is a mighty track and has given us some of the best races and podiums of the last 10 years. Hopefully after Zandvoort and the most overtakes of any Grand Prix before it, Monza can put on a show to rival the Dutch Grand Prix. 
Remember that the Formula 2 continue their season this weekend at Monza also and its the last race of the season for the Formula 3 boys and the Championship will be settled this weekend.
