Italian Grand Prix Experience:

“What can I say. This is my third Italian GP in a row. 2 of them on my own. I never felt alone! I will go without food to go here every september. It is as simple as that and bok F1 are as professional as you would ever want. I will employ their professional services with confidence. ”
John Mullen

“Everything went smooth. Recommend (as always) book your accommodation in advance.

Don’t worry about the train transport in Monza, quite easy to work out once you are there – do not wait in line, the ticket machines translate to english and are straight fwd. If you want to get clever, get the next days ticket the night before.

Stay near centrale station this is what we did and it worked a treat, including airport transport when time to depart.

There is a cool bar area in Milan Central, cant give you street name, however just follow the high heels and you will find it.

Done a few GPs and Monza is up there with the best, Italians are great and food and wine is second to none.

Have a great time! ”
JK

“Had a great view of the first chicane and the crash on race day. Plenty of shade when not watching which was great as it was very hot and humid.

Enjoyed the pit lane walk too on the Thursday and managed to get some autographs and great photos. All in all had a fab weekend ”
Hamilton Fan

“First trip to Monza after 30 years of watching F1 – such an evocative place! Standing on the old banking and walking the circuit after the race is priceless. The noise in the stand when Alonso led into the first chicane was electrifying. Can’t wait to return. ”
Boddington

“Great visit for 3 day pass to monza, which entitled us to pit lane walk on the Thursday, fabulous, and so close to the event. Tickets 21F Parabolica were good, and event marshalling was very good, which allowed unobstructed views through the fencing to see the track action. ”

Fan Reviews:

“Great position on the first corner I wouldnt sit any were else. Fantastic atmosphere with the Tifosi who were very friendly. The circuit is a long way from the train station so a free shuttle bus is put on each day but it is usually very hard to fit on. After two days of trying to catch the bus from the station we drove in from nearby Bergamo which was much easier with parking close to the track for only 10 Euros. ”
AN Buchanan

“The tickets were great, the facilities were great, the pit walk was awesome and then we had a Ferrari escort on top of that, so our dreams came true and we will be doing this again!!! ”
Mark Stephens

“Fantasic weekend helped greatly by the weather and of course Ferrari Pole position & win… Very happy people everywhere! Thursday pit walk great fun and recommended highly ONLY if you are happy to mix with the smaller teams and drivers… unless you are prepared to run to the barriers and stay put for two hours solid forget about getting to Alonso et al…

Big thanks to Hekki Kovalinnen for making my daughter’s weekend.. very nice guy took time to pose and sign with a smile.. real gent. Parabolica is great for getting close to the cars….

All in all highly efficient organisation, like all tracks, initially a bit confusing finding your way around, prices at track v.expensive (as usual) but take drinks and stuff from outside in and that solves that problem.. The Monza experience is fantastic and a real must for petrolheads everywhere.. get fit before you go though! ”
David Wright

“Great weekend. None of the horror stories about toilets, pickpockets, etc proved to be a problem in any way. Free train from Milan on Sunday was a little shambolic but it is Italy! Make time to get up to the old circuit, unbelievable. ”

Italian Grand Prix 2010 – Race Report

Ferrari's Fernando Alonso wins at Monza

Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso leapt back into title contention after winning a thrilling battle with McLaren’s Jenson Button in the Italian Grand Prix.

“Most of the thanks for the win is to the mechanics,” said Alonso.

“The pit stop felt so quick. I stopped, they changed tyres and there was a green light. I didn’t even have first gear in.

“When I came out of the pits I saw he was quite far behind and I thought OK, we have done it but I forgot he was coming at 320kmh (199mph) and he closed very fast.

“We went in the first corner nearly side by side and then I nearly spun when I got on the throttle.”

The Spaniard moves up to third in the championship, 21 points behind new leader Mark Webber of Red Bull, who leapfrogged McLaren’s Lewis Hamilton.

It was a disastrous day for Lewis Hamilton in the other McLaren, who jumped to fourth as Mark Webber’s Red Bull again started slowly, but at the second chicane Massa’s left rear wheel came into contact with Hamilton’s front right, and by the first Lesmo the McLaren driver was in the gravel, his day done.

Italian Grand Prix to Stay at Monza until 2010

• Posted in F1 News . Italian Grand Prix

Fans enjoy the Italian Grand Prix at Monza

Bernie Ecclesone and Monza’s managers have signed a new deal which will keep the Italian Grand Prix at Monza until at least 2016.

The current contract was due to expire in 2012 and terms for a 4 year extension were agreed.

Much like Silverstone, Monza’s future seemed uncertain especially with recent talks about a new race Formula 1 Grand Prix race in Rome.

The deal is very important for the thousands of Ferrari fans who see the legendary track is their home.

Last year’s race was dominated by Brown GP and won by Rubens Barrichello.

Although the 2010 race at Monza is a few months away, Ferrari look very sharp this season and a home one-two will be a dream come true for Alonso and Massa.

Italian Grand Prix, Monza! The home of Ferrari and the circuit where the engines show what they really are made of. If Monaco is glamour, Monza is speed!

For nearly 80% of the time, the Formula 1 drivers are at full throttle and although most achieve good lap times relatively easy, in order to be competitive, they really have to show skill and have great engines of course.

With only three corners worth mentioning, one of which being the famous Parabolica, most drivers find overtaking to be quite difficult at Monza.

The high speed and heavy braking, quite often result in bad accidents and unfortunately Monza has been the scene of a few tragedies.

Still, fast laps, raving engines and a sea of Tifosi with Ferrari flags!
