Monza F1 Tickets

History of the Formula 1 Italian Grand Prix

The Italian Grand Prix has been part of the Formula One World Championship calendar since 1950. Alongside the British Grand Prix, it has run every single year since the inception of Formula One, with all but one of these events being held at Monza (the exception was 1980 when it was held at Imola).

The Autodromo Nazionale di Monza was built in 1922 and was the third permanent race track in the world (alongside Brooklands and Indianapolis). Giuseppe Farina won the first-ever F1 Italian Grand Prix in 1950 and went on to win the first F1 World Championship that same year.

Developments to the circuit made it the fastest Formula One race by 1972, which introduced the chicane that now serves as Turns 1-2. Imola hosted the 1980 Italian Grand Prix while Monza had major facility upgrades, including a new pit lane.

As the cars got quicker, so did the lap times. 2020 saw the fastest-ever lap of Monza, with Lewis Hamilton averaging speeds of 164 mph. The 2023 Italian Grand Prix set the record for the shortest-ever Formula One race (fully completed), taking just 73 minutes.

An iconic Grand Prix, home to some of the most passionate F1 fans in the world. Monza is a must-visit for any Formula One fan. Grab your tickets for the Italian Grand Prix from Fanatix.

2025 Italian Grand Prix Summary

Max Verstappen returned to his dominant best at Monza, winning by over 19 seconds after a tense opening-lap duel with Lando Norris. The race was defined by a controversial McLaren team order; after a slow pit stop dropped Norris behind Oscar Piastri, the team instructed the championship leader to cede the position to aid Norris’s title bid. Charles Leclerc finished a distant fourth, while Lewis Hamilton recovered to sixth on his Ferrari home debut. The result ignited a storm over McLaren’s “papaya rules,” even as they secured another double podium.
