Autodromo Nazionale Monza – Formula 1's “Temple of Speed”

The Autodromo Nazionale Monza, set in the Parco di Monza about 15 kilometres north-east of Milan, hosts the Italian Grand Prix and is one of the oldest and most storied circuits in the world. Its extremely high average speeds have earned it the nickname the “Temple of Speed”.

Key facts

Design and layout

Monza is made up of long full-throttle straights broken up by fast corners and three chicanes – the cars are at full throttle for almost 80 percent of the lap. Famous sections include the Curva Grande, the two Lesmo corners, the Variante Ascari and the legendary Parabolica (now Curva Alboreto). The long straights offer excellent overtaking chances and make Monza the fastest circuit on the calendar.

Significance for Formula 1

Monza has been part of the World Championship since its very first season in 1950. As Ferrari's home race, the tifosi turn the grandstands into a sea of red-and-black flags – the podium celebration in the Parco di Monza is one of the most emotional moments of the season.
