#AutodromoDiMonza

The Autodromo Nazionale di Monza is an internationally renowned automobile circuit located within Monza Park, one of the largest enclosed parks in Europe. Built in 1922, it is the third oldest permanent racetrack in the world, following Brooklands (1907) and Indianapolis Motor Speedway (1909). Throughout its history, Monza has been synonymous with speed and motorsport heritage, earning the nickname “Temple of Speed” due to its high-speed layout and long straights, which have made it one of the fastest circuits in Formula 1. It has hosted the Italian Grand Prix an unmatched 80 times, making it one of the most historic venues in the FIA Formula 1 World Championship. The track has undergone several modifications over the decades, originally featuring a combined road course and high-speed oval, with steeply banked corners that created dramatic and dangerous racing. Although the oval was abandoned for F1 in the 1960s, remnants of it still stand as a tribute to Monza’s daring past. The modern 5.793 km (3.600 mi) layout is known for iconic corners such as the Rettifilo Tribune (Main Straight), Curva Grande, Variante della Roggia, Lesmo, Variante Ascari, and the legendary Parabolica. Monza has been the stage for some of the most thrilling moments in racing history, from record-breaking speeds to heart-stopping finishes and legendary performances by drivers such as Juan Manuel Fangio, Alberto Ascari, Ayrton Senna, Michael Schumacher, and Lewis Hamilton. It remains a fan-favorite thanks to its passionate Tifosi, who bring an electric atmosphere, especially when Scuderia Ferrari competes on home soil. Beyond Formula 1, Monza has also hosted a wide range of international motorsport events, including the World Endurance Championship (WEC), MotoGP (in the past), the FIA World Touring Car Cup (WTCR), and the 1000 km of Monza endurance race.
