Italian Grand Prix 2025: Circuit Details
Monza is a 5.793 km (3.6 miles) circuit famed for being the fastest track on the calendar, earning its nickname “Temple of Speed.” Cars are on full throttle for about 80% of the lap, with the longest straight stretching 1.1 km, letting drivers hit speeds exceeding 350 km/h. The track’s layout features a few sharp chicanes like Variante del Rettifilo (the first chicane), Curva Grande, Lesmo curves, Variante Ascari, and Parabolica, places where braking precision is crucial.
Monza’s combination of long straights and tight corners rewards cars with low downforce and powerful engines, making the battles here intense and strategic. Plus, the punishing kerbs and historic Monza banking add that vintage racing flavour fans love.
