Crowd surge in Monza for Kimi and Ferrari
Everything is ready in Monza for a highly anticipated edition of the Italian GP. Andrea Kimi Antonelli arrives at the home race as the World Championship leader with 6 wins to his name, which is half of the GPs held so far. The Mercedes driver will start from the back of the grid because he will install a new power unit beyond those allowed by the regulations and will race in recovery in an attempt to collect as many points as possible.

Antonelli’s penalty is a great opportunity for all rivals, Ferrari first and foremost. Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton will race with the power unit equipped with the ADUO-2 and will sport a celebratory livery in honor of Michael Schumacher and the Kaiser era that began in 1996 (and in Monza that year Schumi won for the first time in his career at the Temple of Speed).
Watch out for Max Verstappen and Red Bull, the RB22 has excellent aerodynamic efficiency and could excel on the straights of the Brianza circuit.
The event will be broadcast live in full on Sky Sport F1 and the Qualifying and Race will also be broadcast live on free-to-air TV8. On FormulaPassion.it you will find live text coverage of all the sessions featuring F1 on track. Below are the details of the TV schedule, the characteristics of the circuit, and the roll of honor of the Italian Grand Prix. F2 and F3 will also be on track
